The Results are In

 The new book of Shiver and Fears is starting. Meet Carter Fuller, Aria Wilson, Mya Ivory, Cristal Lopez, Angelique Boyd, Nhayla Garcia, Jacob Huerta, and Jalynn These kids are involved in the new book Terror Tales: Into the Legendary Store. 

  Before, it was call The Creepy Store, but I think the Legendary Store is better. I mean each story hosts a legend given to each kid. Now before, I was only going to write 7 short stories. But Jalynn had to be added. Her story "The Loud Giant" was too interesting to pass.

  So how can a story with 7 stories include an 8th person? Well, for one thing; I'm the author, so what I say goes. Secondly, Jalynn story will get a pause within the book. So now and then the book will run back to the story, giving more details on the whole book.

  What's interesting about this book is it is the first book where different stories will connect as one. Kind of like the movie Shorts but only it's in order and not jumbled up.

  Now, another Shiver and Fears book did something different once where the plot split between two people within the entire book. (not to confuse it with The Beast Within the Bed) But that's because of the plot twisted needed in the book.

  Shiver and Fears doesn't do stuff like that often. However, if you go through Magical Times books they split through different characters all the time. Just because so many things are happening between the characters and needs more focus at the time than others.

Back to Shiver and Fears new book. While I work on this book and clean it up afterward, because doing this is going to be a total mess, another book will be worked on called That's a Story! It's about short stories made by 3rd graders. How many 3rd graders will write a story? I guess will have to see. Are you ready for this creative plot?

The Contest has Started

 The contest is off to a great start.  About 20 3rd grade student have found their book title and have handed their entries to me. After this week I will be announcing the top 7 stories for my new book. I've looked over a few and have come up with some very haunting plots for thes storie.

This edition of Terror Tale will host 6 or 7 kids who are friends an wander themselves into a mysterious shop that they've never seen before. As they explore the store, they each find a piece of old treasure connected to a strange legend. 

Each 3rd grader will star in their story I've written. The titles each include a legend as each one will be titled: The Legend of the - - based on their initials of thei

the contest from last year

r name. I will write these 3rd graders into the story and have the story published to their school. Very exciting.

Now, it's sad to say not all these kids will be written in the new book I'm writing. But, this gives them a chance to write their own edition of the story . Although mine will be horror fiction, it'll be good to see what kind of story you can make about "The Old Alien" or "The Strange With" (Not saying those are contestants) but, by writing their own story based on their title, it gives the kids a chance to grow up knowing they've been in the spotlight.

Want to know what Shiver and Fears next book is about? Find out on social media this weekend. And prepare yourself, as we check to see this spring, what stories the students will write themselves!

What's Your Story, Shiver and Fears?

 During the year 2022 Shiver and Fears is working on a major project. I will give 3rd grade students the chance to become Shiver and Fears characters. As you probably remember "The Burning Ghost" was a winning title in a contest.

We're doing it again in 2022, just a little different. We are expecting a bundle of 3rd grade students to enter their title for the next Shiver and Fears book. Now this book will be different, because this book will be another Terror Tales book. So a collection of entries will be placed and published to the public. 

This contest will do more this time as well. Our goal is to encourage young creative minds to make an accomplishment. Well this will be Shiver and Fears first time making a book not self-published, but written by someone else; the students.

Those who created their title, but weren't included in Shiver and Fears Terror Tales book will be given a chance to write their own story. This story will be placed in a different book full of 3rd graders and their creative writings.

This contest will be at the works starting the first Monday in January.   This will be an interesting contest because of the unpredicable outcome of class schedules and student's will.

Will Shiver and Fears be able to make these books? And what's Plan B if it fails? Well, we have our ways...

Shiver and Fears Starts Over

 Hey to all you Shiver and Fears fans out there. If you've noticed, Facebook has rid Shiver and Fears from their site. 

Apparently I've been accused of breaking facebook rules and caused my page to be deleted. Note: no proof was presented for this to happen.

Anyway, Shiver and Fears has to start all over. Let's see how many fans Shiver and Fears really has. It's kind of like a test. Well, it has to be a test because we HAVE to start over! 

Let me get to the point. If you were a follower to Shiver and Fears on facebook, here's how you can follow again: either go to facebook and search for Shiver and Fears again or copy and paste Facebook.com/shiverandfears2. As of now very little know of this situation, we are doing our best to solve it. It'll take a few years, but I have faith that everything can be put back in order.

Take a moment of your time today, and like us on facebook, then share it with your friends and let them know how much we want our fans back!

The Real Facts

So, as some of you know I've presented videos of familiar stars claiming they were around to help Shiver and Fears. How does a famous author get such busy stars to take a moment of their schedule to help Shiver and Fears? Well the best way, is to pay them. These stars are bought at a site called Cameo. 

Before getting into more detail, the main question is: What is this all about? *sigh* I am not famous! I am not some-what friends with tv stars, I don't have 1600 followers on instagram, and if you think Shiver and Fears sales like hot cakes, they don't!

Let me tell you the truth behind Shiver and Fears. Book sites around the U.S. have Shiver and Fears included, but no store has them themselves. The only stars that know anything about Shiver and Fears is Kamran Lucas who can name at least one title.

 So why am I explaining this? I've been a jerk to people just by believing I'm a star. It's funny how just by believing your an important person can make you act so stuck up.

I mean are all stars REALLY as sweet as they appear on tv? Even behind the scene? The truth, from what I see, no. We don't really know the actual personalities behind these guys, not until we really meet them. I mean, how many tv stars have you messaged on social media and they replied back? And are they not replying because they can't answer to everyone, or could it be they don't want to answer to you?

I'll tell you, I've messaged Alisa Reyes, Kel Mitchell, Isaac Ryan Brown and yes, Kamran Lucas. I never get a response back. Kyle has replied once or twice after replying to his posts, and Leon Frierson chat once in a while. But my first step into not being a snob, like some stars is by admitting: I've had my interviews, I'm placed on socal medias and had a moment on the newspaper and tv, but I AM NO STAR!

 

Creeps Pays a Visit

 A lot of you have seen Creeps, Shiver and Fears mascot. We don't talk about him much, because for those of you who don't know, he's an ice monster.

He enjoys being ice-olated (dumb joke; I know) But he doesn't like to be around people. But this October he decided to pay a visit to Britton Elementary. Right now he's spending the month in Ms. Pollard's class. Why?

 Before we answer that let me tell you why you don't hear about Creeps alot. For one thing, he's an ice monster, so weather here isn't the best for him. Secondly, you don't want to poke the bear (ice monster in this case) with tasks he doesn't want to do. Lastly, he doesn't do too much. 

So that give you the question of Why is Creeps visiting an elementary school? Well, I've asked him to pay a visit to the students and give them audio books. Every school day he gives a audio ticket to good students. 

Now, I told him not to eat anyone. So Ms. Pollard is feeding him ice cubes to keep him calm. I do wonder how the students are treating him. Because if they treat him wrong, he might go balistic! Well I'm sure he'll last a while, I mean we have Fall Break So he only has 3 weeks with those kids. Not too bad!

Creeps will be leaving soon, before Halloween. I thought he'd stay longer. But I guess it's a tradition; come to school for a month and disappear back to your habitat. Where does he live? Shoot, I don't know!
