I WRITE TO ENTERTAIN AND ENTHRALL THE WORLD
AND I WRITE TO ENGAGE MY OWN SENSES  IN THE PURSUIT OF THE ONLY THING I EVER WANT TO DO
...WRITE

About me...C Anthony Boot
 

 
So how are things in your life?
Want a bit of soul burning, retina scorching excitement with maybe just a splash of profound fear and a little old piece of adrenaline thrown in for good measure?
You do? Then read at your leisure from my selection of tales in the drop down menu opposite.
I like most have a mundane, run of the mill job and wish for more. The more, of which I dearly wish for is to enthrall and entertain you all. To take control of your senses, to grab your wits, to shake and pound them to their very core. You may love or hate my short tales of terror and excerpts from my debut novel, but please feel free to sign my guestbook and grace me with your comments.
Alternatively, also feel free to give me feedback - negative or positive.
After all you can't get better without any feedback.

So who am I?
I am an average guy with a huge imagination. I love nothing better than to gather up all my love for the written word and introduce that love to my inner imagination and see what transpires. I have been writing for many years now, on and off since I was a mere small boy. Scribing my imagination, my dreams and my thoughts into words of wonder whenever I could find the time. I have been juggling my lust for writing between my life on a call centre and giving my love to my precious soul mate and childhood sweetheart - whom I met again by coincidence some years ago, and whom I can't imagine a day without.
I have written numerous tales of terror and I am currently working on my secnd novel (The Sanderstrohm Prophecies.)
As yet I am unpublished - albeit a self-published book of short stories. Although, like many Authors I know only too well that it takes time, energy and a lot of rejections to get where you want to be. Alas I have also been rejected, no less so though than all the major Authors who have been rejected so many times before me until that certain someone spots something in them. I very much hope therefore, that you dear readers of my stories might spot that certain something in me and tell my name to the world.
I promise - that in return - I will entertain and scare you to the very best of my ability...and then some.
I am currently seeking representation for my debut novel: FALLEN LEAVES
A dark Sci Fi, techno thriller of a ride.

You can read excerpts from the main menu opposite or by visiting my Facebook page scaredwanttobe

I will publish excerpts of my stories here every few weeks, along with anecdotes and blogs of my daily life as I write.
So by all means come on in, take a seat with me and snuggle up tight with your favourite tipple or hot drink and peruse my site at your leisure. Above all else, suspend your disbelief, kick off the troubles of your day and heartily enjoy my tales of insiduous terror, spellbinding mysteries and psychological shivers that will take your brain to the very edge of its cerebellum based synapses.

I wholeheartedly hope that you can and will follow me, and if you like what you read then please buy my book of short stories
'Mr Fletcher'
There will be more soon - and please remember my debut novel FALLEN LEAVES, out early 2016.
