I recently received a 2-star review, but rather than drown my sorrows in chocolate or stomp around the house, I wrote an essay to address the main issue - that the story was too depressing.

Tragic novels and plays have existed since the moment people started to tell each other stories. But, why do we need depressing books anyway?

Annalisa Crawford, Author

Dark contemporary fiction with a hint of paranormal
​"Besides Annalisa's clever writing style, I enjoy the unpredictable plots and the characters that are so very normal, yet tragically broken in some way or another."
