October 2 question - Ghost stories fit right in during this month. What's your favorite classic ghostly tale? Tell us about it and why it sends chills up your spine.

I Love this time of year. The changing, colorful leaves, the crisp air, and the crushed apples and fry cakes wafting from our local cider mill. 

I like thrillers, scary movies like The Others with Nicole Kidman or the Insidious franchise movies which is somewhat based on factual events. Movies that make the hair on my arms spike and make me jump in my seat when something jumps out. I can definitely do without tons of bloody, gory scenes. It's a yearly tradition to watch Hocus Pocus.

August 7 question - Do you use AI in your writing and if so how? Do you use it for your posts? Incorporate it into your stories? Use it for research? Audio?

I've never researched nor used AI. The thought of using AI feels like cheating or something. 

On a different note: It's taken a long, long time to reach the end of my WIP. I'm at that point of a love/hate relationship with my characters. LOL. I am in the process of searching for an Editorial Service. (It is a YA/Fantasy.) If anyone has any suggestions please message me or comment below. Thank You.

July 3 question - What are your favorite writing processing (e.g. Word, Scrivener, yWriter, Dabble), writing apps, software, and tools? Why do you recommend them? And which one is your all time favorite that you cannot live without and use daily or at least whenever you write?

I've been using Word forever. I'm comfortable with it. I never tried anything else. I guess I'm a creature of habit. 

I hope everyone is having a nice summer. During these summer months in West Seneca, NY, I'm looking at a sunny, beautiful day. The air is fresh, not humid, and I'm thinking of taking Murphy, (my dog) for a walk. Needless to say, I don't get much writing done because these summer days pass very quickly. Enjoy!!

June 5 question - In this constantly evolving industry, what kind of offering/service do you think the IWSG should consider offering to members?  

Beta readers and editorial services would be excellent. Of course, compensation for services rendered is a must. When I've completed drafting and self-editing, I'm always searching for an editor to polish up my tangled mess of a manuscript.
