So many stories to tell

On top of the desk in my study is a heavy chest made of polished walnut, with a brass handle on the lid and brass hinges in the back. It has a single clasp in front, but no lock. It is brimming with stories ready to share. Here you can take a peak inside that chest.
I started out writing mysteries. In the midst of that work, an idea came along which refused to fit into that genre, so I dove into the world of magical realism. But my admiration for Patricia Highsmith generated even more ideas, so I was compelled to try my hand at psychological suspense. However, my imagination is bursting with a playground full of children who say “tell us the one about…” and I did, because I must.
