"A Million Shades of Nightmare" by Cat Sparks

Sarah Jordan's mother says she's perfectly safe. Sarah knows better. Cat lives on the sunny south coast of New South Wales. She works part-time as a graphic designer and writes as often as she can possibly manage. In 2004 she was a graduate of the inaugural Clarion South Writers’ Workshop and a Writers of the Future prizewinner. She has edited four anthologies, and won eight Ditmars and four Aurealis awards. Fifty-odd of her short stories have been published since the turn of the Millennium. She is currently hard at work on a trilogy, a standalone novel, a novella, and a handful of complicated short stories. Find out more at www.catsparks.net and http://catsparx.livejournal.com/ .
