About the Book
A few years ago, I was asked to contribute a horror story for 13 Thirty Books November anthology: Never Fear – The Tarot: Do You Really Want To Know? I was delighted to contribute, but in the back of my mind knew that there was a possibility that not all of my readers would embrace the opportunity to read a horror story, hence the reason I decided to use my maiden name as a pseudonym for non-romance stories: C.M.C. Dobbs. I was delighted and accepted the challenge, but the challenge was far greater than I’d imagined.
Fun Fact #1: I ended up writing eight different horror stories until Lance Taubold mentioned the cult aspect of the card and everything clicked.
Fun Fact #2: And the very cool thing about this anthology is that the Tarot cards chose the authors! When they came to my name, the card they drew was the 14th Major Arcana Card: Temperance.
Fun Fact #3: I don’t watch horror movies other than the classics from the 1930s with Bela Lugosi, Lon Chaney, and Boris Karloff. Then there’s that model my brother built when we were kids of the Creature From the Black Lagoon…scared the you-know-what out of me.
