Ware's tales are told in a pleasantly chatty first-person style, the voice convincingly that of a young teen put-upon by sisters, brothers, parents, friends and the rest of the world... until the rest of the world jumps in with scares aplenty." -Sheila Deeth, Author, blogger, and reviewer."Writing for (a) younger audience can be tricky, but Michael Ware knows the tricks." - Author, Laura LundAbout the Author:M.J.A. Ware, known as MJ to his friends, lives in the foothills of the Sierra Mountains with his wife and two daughters.

Murder/Mystery/Fantasy/SuspenseThis is a rough draft of an unfinished book by a friend's wife, Lorna Lynne Kreimer, who passed away. I was looking at it to Co-Publish/Author with my friend, thinking we would find just a little more of the story, which we have not. See Longer description below.The Total December ExperimentThis is a rough draft of an unfinished book by a friend's wife, Lorna Lynne Kreimer, who passed away. I was looking at it to Co-Publish/Author with my friend, thinking we would find just a little more of the story, which we have not. From her stopping point in the book, the story could go any way. I thought I would put it out there to you, present and future authors. Write a chapter and submit it for review, If we include it, we will add you to the list of authors and go on from there. Let's see where we can take it, make in an anthology.The title is taken from the word file the manuscript was found in, 'Total December', which I have come to believe is actually a reference to her accumulated work of that month. Some of the work is rough, some needs formatted, but I will work on that when I have time over the next few months. I may even write a chapter if my muse cracks me in the back of the skull with a bat, screaming "you know what comes next!"Anyway, from this day forward it is a project, an experiment. Lets see where we can take it! Join in on this anthology and get your name out there for others to see!You can reach me by email @: [email protected]!JT Lewis

SHE’S LEARNED ALL ABOUT KILLERS They aren’t the kind of women anyone misses. Truck-stop hookers, runaways . . . no one would even notice they’d disappeared if the killer didn’t photograph their lifeless bodies, posed in the back of a semi-trailer. Exactly like the infamous Trucker murders. But this isn’t just a copycat. It’s a vendetta. NOW HE’LL TEACH HER Carmen Jacobs interviewed the world’s most terrifying serial killers for her bestselling book, The Heart of a Predator. The police might not believe her, but she knows there’s a monster out there, paying homage to other murderers. The only person who can predict where he’ll strike next is Griffin Archer—a reclusive software millionaire with ample reason not to help her. HOW TO DIE . . . Carmen has charmed her way past Griffin’s defenses before. He didn’t intend to let it happen again. But with a psycho sending her trophies of his kills, he has no choice but to get involved. The clues point to a killer obsessed with Carmen—someone who knows her work, her past, her secrets. Someone who won’t be satisfied until he has made all her deepest fears come true . . .

Keisha Ceylon is a psychic. At least, that's what she passes herself off as. The truth is, Keisha's real powers have more to do with separating troubled families from their money than actually seeing into the netherworld. Keisha watches the news for stories of missing family members. She gives it a few days, then moves in, tells these families she's had a vision, that she may have some clue to where these missing people are. And by the way, she charges for this service, and likes to see the money up front. Keisha's latest mark is a man whose wife disappeared a week ago. She's seen him on TV, pleading for his wife to come home, or, if she's been abducted, pleading with whoever took her to let her go. Keisha knows a payoff when she sees one. So she pays a visit to our troubled husband, tells him her vision. Trouble is, her vision just happens to be close enough to the truth that it leaves this man rattled. And it may very well leave Keisha dead.

Holland and Niles Perry are identical thirteen-year-old twins. They are close, close enough, almost, to read each other’s thoughts, but they couldn’t be more different. Holland is bold and mischievous, a bad influence, while Niles is kind and eager to please, the sort of boy who makes parents proud. The Perrys live in the bucolic New England town their family settled centuries ago, and as it happens, the extended clan has gathered at its ancestral farm this summer to mourn the death of the twins’ father in a most unfortunate accident. Mrs. Perry still hasn’t recovered from the shock of her husband’s gruesome end and stays sequestered in her room, leaving her sons to roam free. As the summer goes on, though, and Holland’s pranks become increasingly sinister, Niles finds he can no longer make excuses for his brother’s actions. Thomas Tryon’s best-selling novel about a homegrown monster is an eerie examination of the darkness that dwells within everyone. It is a landmark of psychological horror that is a worthy descendent of the books of James Hogg, Robert Louis Stevenson, Shirley Jackson, and Patricia Highsmith.
