The gavel hit the sound block and his mind went silent. Mark´s soul folded up small: once, twice, and once more. Until his senses were withdrawn from the reality and the numbness in his head made a dream-time of the external world. His mother´s cries echoing in the courtroom.But it couldn't be real, could it? A violent thrust and he fell into a cage. A heavy door closing behind. The sound of the starting engine. Bang! The gavel against the block now was no more than a resonance in his head. He lost the game. It was over.From mindless delinquent to mindful hypnotist, Mark Anthony´s story take us from the criminal world of Southeast London to a successful career as one of the World's Leading Hypnotists. A roller-coaster of family violence, children's home, expelled and suspended from schools, child abuse, drugs, crime and loss of freedom; cancer, bankrupt, divorce and false accusations, and the power of a man´s mind driving his way out to a brighter life of love and success.Mark´s incredible story goes beyond anything told before: a real emerging phoenix. Fatherless, poor, beaten, abused, arrested, belted, threatened, on the verge of death…Mark´s childhood and adolescence elapsed like the worst of nightmares.The brother of a murderer, he lost four friends to heroin and was employed by an underworld figure. Treated like scum but trusting there was a way out, it was when the game seemed lost, behind bars, that Mark decided to change his life. It was an arduous path, rich in disappointments and great mistakes, albeit Mark´s life tells us that nothing is fatal and never everything is lost. An inspirational story showing us that, no matter where we are at, there is always a way up if we put our mind to it, it's all about 'the choices we make'.

This book is a collection of bizarre, short stories that stem from my childhood memories of watching too many Alfred Hitchcock movies and Twilight Zone episodes. You may find there is a certain familiarity about them from your own experiences. There seems to be little distinction between the definitions of horror and creepy, but I believe horror is more imagery, whereas, creepy is more imagination. I also classify these stories as psychological thrillers, which often overlaps with the elements of mystery and horror. What I hope I achieved with these stories was to stimulate your imagination sufficiently to allow your mind to fill in those blank areas where I purposefully did not detail a scene or conclusion.I wrote these stories between the writings of my novels as a way to keep my skills fresh. If you find that you enjoyed any of these stories, I invite you to try one of my thriller novels.

Stories just got creepier with Halfway to Creepy 2. This book is the second in a collection of bizarre, short stories that are sure to stir your imagination and take you on a psychological journey. If you are into spooky, the weird, curious or odd, then you must read Creepy 2. As with Halfway to Creepy, you may find there is a certain familiarity about these stories from your own experiences. I believe we all have a natural calling to want to scare ourselves while knowing there is a separation from reality and the other worldly. My goal was to let you find the creepy by allowing your mind to fill in those blank areas where I purposefully did not detail a scene or conclusion. If you find that you enjoyed any of these stories, I invite you to try Halfway to Creepy and/or one of my thriller novels.
