Hey GOB writers! Thriller writers that you are … what is your favorite Halloween memory?
Cathi: When I was in first grade, my mom made be a Miss Bianca costume from the Rescuers. I felt like I was Miss Bianca. More recently, it’s been my daughters’ love for Halloween. We have a great neighborhood for trick or treating – the parents might get a little adult beverage while accompanying the kids and pre-game parties to get everyone fed first! And, I love this picture of my sasquatch husband and I!
Christie: I have so many Halloween memories that I could never choose the favorite! Growing up my dad would sit outside the door dressed as a zombie (before zombies were a thing) and give out the candy while scaring the neighborhood kids. I always loved dressing up and still do … must be the actor in me. My kids grew up in the same type of neighborhood as I did so I continued to have fun with Halloween. In Florida it is often hot (and sometimes rainy) but doesn’t seem to stop the masses of trick-or-treaters that hit the streets. And I love all the ghost stories and scaring people which I guess is why I’m a thriller writer!

Many great memories. One GREAT memory was trick or treating in our (San Antonio) neighborhood in 100-degree heat and one neighbor was handing out cold water bottles! The kids loved it as much as I did!
