I am very excited to announce that ALA Edition is beginning a FREE book club and my book is the first one. See below for the details. Not only do you get to talk horror just as the Spooky Season is getting into full swing with me, but I have invited some of my friends.
Did I mention it is FREE? Oh, wait, I did. And if you miss it, they will have it on their YouTube page for free as well.
But if you act now, there is a code to get my book for 40% off. You need this book to help you help your Horror readers all year long but especially during the Fall.
