Interview II: Sherri Browning Erwin
We love reading and thinking beyond the book, and behind the book. So it is always a great pleasure when we can ask an author some of our own burning questions. Sherri Browning Erwin has been good enough to allow us to interview her for a second time! She always has such fun answers.

Writing with Ghosts
We are pleased to welcome back Sherri Browning Erwin with her second monster mashup classic Grave Expectations. Today she’s here to tell us a little about what it’s like to write with ghosts, or at least reworking the classics while honoring their creators.

Expectations Great and Grave
As Dickens mixed realism with a good dose of fantasy to weave his satirical social commentaries of Victorian society how much more fantastical can a tale such as Great Expectations become? Well, Sherri Browning Erwin answers this question with her monster mashup Grave Expectations adding another elemental layer of darkness.

Bring Out the Undead
Oh, how I have missed zombies–the lifeless stare, the slow, cumbersome movements, the way they are ended by beheading.

The Color Red
The color red gets a bad rap.
