It's New but Also Old

A few months back Shiver and Fears book A Witch's Coincidence was written, but couldn't be published. The team illustrator was still working on the cover, and you can't have a book without a cover. We did the next best thing and sent it to a website where people write stories and share them with other writers. It was to stay there until the cover was complete.
It shows a character looking in the town newspaper where they talk about the town curse of having a witch walking amongst them. And in a way it looks like the girl cooking dinner as the brews her stew...  hmmm, could it be? or is it just... a coincidence. I sure won't tell.
 So where do you buy this book? Right here< It can be found in a few other places too... ... ... well I don't know where! But it is! You just have to look. There are like 1000s of book websites, I'm sure you can find it on one.
 
More big news Shiver and Fears is getting another narrated audio book set. Sibling Subtraction is about a group of friends who trap their annoying little siblings in a trick, but really the jokes on them. I bet you want to know more huh? Well codes will be handed out this December... if you can survive that long!
 Our physic friend here predicts a Creepy Christmas to bring a cold chill to who ever buys one! Don't believe me? Dare you to buy one then, and if you end on the news stated to be frozen we'll know where that came from!...

Writer's Vision

Shiver and Fears might not come together like you may think. Some book were printed before others, some had a change in idea, others were never printed. For example The Haunted Party was going to  be called The Never Ending Party. Kevin was to be a guest at a party but was never able to leave, Kevin was trying to leave the party but each door was just another door back into the party, to then finally realize he's in a deep trance and was never at a party. I changed it, because the story was never fully plotted in story. It then became The Haunted Party and was going to be about a boy summoning ghost with his weird necklace... I completely forgot to mention it. That's why it's one of the Creepy Christmas Tales.

A story never written was The Bus Driver of Doom. a story about a bus driver who get replaced by a ghost. Why? You might ask. Can't tell you, I might print it, and don't want to ruin it for you!

In the Skeleton Dinner Rashonda's name was going to be Danni. We're still debating on whether Secret Saturday should get a sequel and The Beast Within the Bed was planning to be It Happened Under the Bed. You might be able to understand why that changed.


But that's why we plan it before we write. Whether it be the name, the title, the picture, or the whole story plot itself an author must see his story before writing it.

Well, What Do You Think?

Here is where you can find Shiver and Fears arts and other things I work on.
You know being the author of Shiver and Fears is fun. Especially when you know over 100 viewer are interested. But the hard thing about working you way into fame is not only getting on tv, or out in public, it's knowing what your fans think of you.
  So tell me; What do you think? I know you like the pictures, the posts, the games, the comments, the news, ect. But what do you really think? Is there something you want to know more about Shiver and Fears? Is there something that you'd want to know?
  As an author I want to connect with my fans, but it's not something I can do without comments. I mean, why do you even like Shiver and Fears? Can't be the books, because I know you haven't read one. Maybe it's just our creepy appearance, or we're just something you catch, read, and move on with during the day.
  Whatever the reason is from being drag into it to  curiosity, I'm glad your interested, maybe someday you will buy Don't Mock A Witch and write a letter with your new Shiver and Fears pen. Maybe one day you'll check out the website monthly and see the news of the month and play one of our creepy games.
For now it's nice to know you even read these blogs. And I'll be there whenever you're ready to write that comment!

Do I Really Scare you?

I talked to a few readers and most of them said they don't read scary stories, that made me think about the 105 fans on facebooks and even you the bloggers. Do we really scare you or are you thinking because we're a horror book we're able to slip into your mind and make you scream?
You know there's that phrase that states you can't judge a book by it's cover. That phrase doesn't just go for books you think are boring, but also books you think are scary. I thought when filming our first Shiver and Fears video it was going to fearful:but one guy saw it and told us "What's scary about it?" Don't Play With Dolls is about a boy who gets teased for playing with dolls, so he tried getting rid of this one doll, but she keeps coming back. The thing is, this doll doesn't DO anything. She doesn't hurt anyone, she doesn't come to life, gosh, she's not even alive!
In the end you'll understand what's really going on... at least that's what I thought. Watch it to the end and comment if you do or not. You're the judge here.
Truth be told, I think the bloopers are better click here (WARNING IT'S 30 MINUTE LONG. 47 people think it's worth it though.
Will Warner made sure there were a few laughs.
I'm a little off track here. Just believe me when I tell you Shiver and Fears is scary, but not terrifying!

What makes Fears fearful? part 2

  here's another fearful thought: You are now Salena and all you want is that cute boy to notice you. You're pretty, you're smart, but you're not the center of attention like the other girls. Not I know you're not scared yet, but what if while walking though a forest after shopping for valentine cards you almost get stroked by an arrow? "Ok, that's a little scary, but who was striking arrows?" 
 You find bow and arrow from a distance and take them home. And then, by mistake you strike your parents! Luckily they don't die, but fall in love! You realize these are cupid's arrows!
  Still not scared, huh? Ok, ok so you try using the using the arrows on the boy you like and then everything is great right? WRONG! Cupid's arrows suddenly go missing and cupid demands those arrows back. How do you get something back if you don't know where they are?
Want to know where they are? In the hands of the most popular girl in school! Using all the arrows to be loved by everyone... Scared now?
  What if I told you she's having the whole school hunt you down to be in her hands. You're trapped at school, about 1000 kids are looking for you. You're defenseless, you're to be a love zombie for the rest of your life. Are you scared?

I've watched a few horror films, they all have one thing in common: KILL, KILL, KILL!
 It's seems one major way of scaring people in movies is to kill them all. You don't think that's true, do you? I mean how would you feel if you were home alone and lights began to flicker and you heard noise in the house, you walk to the front door and a giant hand reaching for you! Or what if a friend started peeling off his skin and became a life skeleton?
  If you read a Shiver and Fears book, you may or may not get scared. But it's not just you who needs to get scared it's the kids as well. And being in a non-safe position is scary enough.

What makes Fears fearful? part 1

  In Shiver and Fears what makes "Fears" so fearful? Well, in The Unlucky Charm our main character, Trevor Silver is dealing with bad luck.
  His fear starts when finding a rabbit. Now you ask "What's scary about a rabbit?" Tell me this, what if you were at home alone and you turned to your bedroom door and a rabbit, not just an ordinary rabbit, but a blue rabbit was hopping pass your room.
  Now you would wonder where it came from, or even did you even see it correctly. So you rush out your room (because you don't want to miss it), follow it down the hall (or wherever you saw it going) and catch it in the living room.
  Now you notice something weird about this rabbit: 1 he only has three paws, 2. he's the same color as your rabbit's foot necklace, and 3 (the most obvious) HE'S IN YOUR HOUSE! How are you feeling? What if I told you he has sharp teeth and tells you "Give me back my foot." ? are you scared?
  You might be saying, "Just give it back," but do remember Trevor Silver A.K.A "you" suffer from bad luck, and this charm is helping you avoid it. Do you still give it back? Well it leaves you with a choice 1 give it and go back to bad luck, or keep it and fear the rabbit's eyes stalking you.
  Now you're probably sitting like "What is a rabbit going to do to me?" That's something the rabbit is planning, but you can imagine whatever it is (as a teenager) what he could do... Now I ask, are you scared?
