"WELCOME TO MY NIGHTMARE"

I could never have imagined this. Cursed with barely a kiss.

A writer of horror and mystery, now part of a murderer's history.

How could my books with happy endings not hold the same outcome for me? Instead, I'm buried with others under this gnarled tree.

My killer was charming. Not the least bit alarming.

A fan with questions and a few suggestions.

I blushed like a teen and felt like a queen.

A cocktail with Rohypnol and I was his doll.


So business-like, with his sharp knife.

Death didn't come swift, but when it did it was a gift.

Hi Renee - I'm vaguely in line with this ... a very odd route I'm going (silly one!) ... but your post here is brilliant - cheers Hilary

Cooper's song is a good choice.

Debbie D. said...

That's one of my favourite Alice Cooper songs! ♥ What a horrible fate for an author. Looking forward to learning more, though!

My response is late, sorry. But, I'm so excited to see what the others do. Such fun!

That's wonderful, Hilary, the odder the better in my book! :)

Yolanda Renée said...

I had fun with it. Picked out all the songs, then came up with the story.

Yolanda Renée said...

Had to make myself part of the story. LOL It's a great song!

I can be? Oops, did I just admit to that? LOL It's fun writing these!
