If you ever wanted to know about my childhood fears, a major answer can be found in Ian McDowell's "Formative Frights: Weird Fiction Writers on What Scared Them as Kids," along with similarly early creep-outs from Gwendolyn Kiste, Gemma Files, LC von Hessen, John Langan, Nadia Bulkin, and Ramsey Campbell, among others. Now, of course, I write endlessly about shape-change and transformation, the interplay of faces and masks. See also that one time I wrote a sex scene with a bog body.
