As a writer, I'm a big fan of mixing chocolate together with peanut butter– or, in this case, blending genres. Westerns and horror stories have a long tradition of being wedded. Maybe it's cause, when done right, there's real poetry. Westerns serve as the perfect counter balance to ghost stories, don't they? I mean, what compliments the supernatural better than the uber-natural– can't get more natural than the West. :)

Hope you're enjoying this!
