Fiction Friday – Kristi Peterson Schoonover

November 25th, 2011 | Posted in Fiction Friday

I became acquainted with Kristi through the New England Horror Writers Association. We met at a conference, and quite frankly, there may not be a more interesting group to speak with. So many interesting individual writers with different takes gathered together under their umbrella–but that is another story for another day. Kristi wasn’t at that […]
