Okay, here is what I have: '''You can call me mmpratt99. I am a semi-professional artist and beginning writer. I just started writing short stories in order to combat bouts of artistic block. My main theme of writing is staying away from the Hollywood gore-horror cliche, boring over-used monsters–human and otherwise and horrible Sci-Fi Channel scenario featuring half-baked mutations and cheesy B-movie situations. My work also doesn’t involve Gothic haunted house settings and creepy families with a lot of skeletons in their closets nor does it involve a typical TV-like story where an evil villain is being stopped by a good hero(s).

My characters are just regular people everywhere, trying to make sense of the unexpected suddenly intruding in their hum-drum lives. While a few decided to fight back against “it,” most just run away or cower under the bed cowers.'''
