Every year our country neighbors do the most amazing, hilarious, shocking Halloween decorations ever, and I swear, every year I think, how can they possible do anything new, they’ve done everything, but they always pull it off, proving that I have a stunning lack of imagination for a fantasy novelist, I mean, for gods sake, [...]
Last Halloween, I posted about our marvelous neighbors (‘neighbor’ in rural-speak can be anyone within a 10 mile radius) who go nuts with their spooky decorations each year. Have I mentioned how much I love these sick and demented people?
