Listen . . . do you hear
Wailing in the darkling wood?
Only wind, you say?
Fool! Hurry inside,
Bolt the door, and wait for morn.
This one night is theirs....

Who Am I? What Am I Doing Here?
- Vicki Lane
- western NC, United States
- I'm the author of The Elizabeth Goodweather Appalachian Mysteries from Bantam Dell. The series includes SIGNS IN THE BLOOD (LA MONTAGNE DES SECRETS in France), ART'S BLOOD, (LE SECRET DES APPALACHES in France,) OLD WOUNDS,IN A DARK SEASON (Anthony Nominee, Best PBO), and UNDER THE SKIN. There's also THE DAY OF SMALL THINGS (a spinoff/standalone)chronicling the unexpected life story of Miss Birdie, one of Elizabeth's neighbors. I came to this weird business late (my first novel was published in 2005) and am still trying to figure it out. As my novels are set in a place much like my real life home, I thought I'd use this blog to share pictures of our farm and county. I've been blogging for over four years now, on an almost daily basis, and the topics have ranged from writing, chickens, food, books, quilts, flora and fauna of all sorts, to the occasional tiny rant. There's no plan, but there are lots of pictures. There's more information about me and my books on my web site: http://vickilanemysteries.com/

Happy Halloween!
What a great shot for Hallowe'en. Presumably, you don't too many 'trick or treaters' knocking at your door.
Happy Halloween, Vicki!
Happy Halloween! The first shot is awesome.
Have a good fright night Vicki. Hugs, Margie.
Hello Vicki
Happy Halloween~"trick or treat give me something good to eat!"
I had to say it.
Best
Tracy :)
bwahaha...smiles...happy halloween...growing up with a cemetery int he back yards and being surrounded by woods...we pretty well scared the life out of ourselves often...ha...nice pics...
No, Martin, we haven't had trick or treaters since my boys were small. Back then our group of mothers would drive the kids around to our different house and end up at one for a party. Since we live pretty far apart it took a long time. Nowadays, it seems that kids just go into town and visit the various merchants who have candy ready.
Halloween when I was a kid (back in the Fifties and in a relatively safe suburb)was WONDERFUL! We ranged up and down several blocks, visiting house after house and often receiving excellent homemade treats.
Therese -- that first shot was a lucky accident -- a combination of sun and shadow that I didn't see til it was on the computer.
Trick or treat! Only the brave or foolhardy would venture out once seeing that first photo.
Yikes! Good advice, Vicki!
I'm staying in! I actually rather wish I lived in a remote spot - I get a bit sick of the doorbell ringing!
YIKES : )
Oh, I love those scary things! Happy Halloween!
Oh my, that first shot is super creepy!! If that's what the woods around your house look like, I would definitely be staying inside. Happy Halloween!
I think I just saw Boo Radley behind my shrubs.....
Very cute Vicki. Happy Halloween!
What a fun post Vicki! Love those photos; really spooky!
Happy Halloween Vicki!
Oooh spooky!
