Fast Fears #1: Bats in the Attic

When I first started writing, I wrote nothing but Horror, Fantasy, and Drama stories. Some of the scenes contained graphic violence and strong sexual situations. When I went back to revise those stories, I liked them, but I found myself embarassed to let close friends and family read them. I was afraid they'd think I was some crazy lunatic. I wrote these kind of stories because that's what I like to read. Some of my favorite authors are Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Peter Straub, Bentley Little, and James Patterson. Stephen King wrote, "Writing is a way to let the mind misbehave." I always loved that quote and took it to it's fullest.Now that I'm older and have two small boys of my own, I would like to start writing stories that are more suitable for readers of all ages. I'm not saying that I'm completely abandoning the crazy stuff, I'm just cutting out the heavy profanity, extreme violence, and sexual situations for now. If you like that kind of stuff, I have another Smashwords account with my older stories (the link is below, or look up Matthew Stephens) Check it out, but don't say I didn't warn you. Ha!Coming soon:Fast Fears #1: Bats in the Attic(Fast Fears is a scary chapter book, or novella, series for all ages. It's like R.L. Stine's Goosebumps, only a bit more frightening and may not be suitable for small children.)Fast Fears #2: Demon BrotherComing late next year:Timothy Wood and the world of one(A fantasy/adventure novel)I hope to hear from ya and keep reading!M.D. Stephens
