# About me

My name is Chris, and my favorite thing to do in the world is to curl up with a good book and read till dark. My favorite genre is, obviously, horror, though I enjoy several other genres as well. My favorite book is The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux.

Another one of my hobbies...well, it's an obsession, actually...is horseback riding. I own one horse, a pinto gelding named Mojo, and he is my pride and joy. That's the two of us in the picture above, and I have some more pictures of him in my gallery, so feel free to take a look.

Here's an overview of the kind of work I do: I mostly write short stories in the genres of horror and fantasy, although I may write a mystery story every once in a while. I also enjoy writing horse stories on the occasion, and I will sometimes attempt to write a novella, posting it one chapter at a time. I have a series of comics called Pasture Pals going, which is about my horse Mojo and my friend Sam's horse Merlin and their various antics. I write film reviews in addition to my creative work, and I do take requests! Other than that, I do random poetry, mostly concerning my horse or faith, and I like to draw. So I pretty much do a little of everything.

I am a graduate of Campbell University with a degree in English. I don't yet know what I'm going to do with an English degree, though. I'd planned on teaching at the high school level until I did some observing and realized that it wasn't for me. So my future is pretty much up in the air right now, although I recently started considering writing film reviews for a newspaper or something. We'll see. I do want to publish my own work someday and am currently working on an anthology of short stories and several novels.

Please feel free to leave comments and suggestions about my work. I like constructive criticism, it helps me grow as a writer.

Also! If you're interested in reading more of my work, I have two other sites you might want to visit. First, I have a fanfiction.net account, which features some stories I might not have posted here on deviantART. I mostly write "How to Train Your Dragon" stories, but I've also got stuff for "The Lion King," "Harry Potter," "The Nightmare Before Christmas," and others. Here's the link: www.fanfiction.net/u/2610877/H… . Second, some friends and I have set up a blog where we allow our creative sides to run wild. I do book reviews under the pen name Mr. Write, and I encourage you to check the site out because my friends have some really cool material of their own, including short stories, comics, inspirational essays, and more reviews. Here's the link to that site, so please give it a look! scrypticablog.wordpress.com/

[Goes to deviantART on November 3 and checks messages, sees one dated October 26 regarding Halloween] ...Oh...um...heh, well I guess the answer to this one is obvious... XD I actually did intend to write a little something for Halloween but...well, it just never happened. Sorry about that... :( (Sad)

Hey, Chris (can I call you that?)!

I just read the first/second chapter of your 'How to Train Your Dragon' POTO story, and. I. *LOVE/HEART*. It!!! Looking forward to more of them-!!

P.S. The HTTYD Phantom is Heather, isn't it? (Just a guess, 'cause it's CERTAINLY *NOT* either Astrid *or* Ruffnut...!)

Quinkenguard [2016-01-22 01:52:03 +0000 UTC]

I've got an idea for Waterhorse.
The people have a regard for poseidon, and Poseidon was the God of the ocean, but also of horses.
They could be the survivors of Atlantis and they transformed themselves and their mounts into sea dwellers to escape destruction.
May sound a bit cliched, but may have a fresh spin in this context.

Your horse stories are good to read. Used them to unwind in my spare time.

I've only recently joined DA. I the first one I found was " the horse on the treadmill" a few years ago. A real powerful story of a boy and his horse. Got my interest hyped them from then
on :) (Smile) . I know that the "Last Stallion" was being edited to be published.
Hows that going?

HorrorFan6 In reply to Quinkenguard [2015-12-18 14:08:06 +0000 UTC]

Umm...right now it's not going at all... I honestly have no idea when that will be ready. But I'm glad you enjoyed "The Horse on the Treadmill." I have a special fondness for that little story.

Hello Chris
I'm a big fan of your work. The characters that you write about really grab me and excite me into reading on.
I think that you should continue writing(there are several stories that aren't finished!).
Have any of your works been published as novels?
I know that I would like to read them.

Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoy my work. :) (Smile) I know there are some unfinished projects here, but I just haven't been able to return to them I'm afraid. I don't have any published works yet, though I do hope to publish something soon. I'll make an announcement on my page when it finally happens. Thanks for your support and praise! It means a lot to know there are people who like what I write. :D (Big Grin)

HorrorFan6 In reply to comicfam [2014-01-27 01:55:28 +0000 UTC]

I'm not doing a sequel to "The Little Mermare." There is literally nowhere else for the story to go. But the story is part of a series of fairy tale and classic retellings called "Horse Tales." Apart from "The Little Mermare," there's "Rapunzel," "The Phantom of the Valley" (based on "The Phantom of the Opera"), and "Romeo and Juliet." Future installments include "Snow White," "Beauty and the Beast," and "The Hunchback of Night Cliff" (based on "The Hunchback of Notre Dame").

HorrorFan6 In reply to comicfam [2014-01-18 18:53:28 +0000 UTC]

I'm writing a sequel to Disney's film "The Little Mermaid," a direct sequel that totally ignores the direct-to-video sequel they made. So far it's slow going; I just haven't had the drive to write. But once my writer's block is gone it should be up soon.
