Carmen Tudor’s YA fiction appears in Spotlight: A Golden Light Anthology, Spirited: 13 Haunting Tales, and Gooseberry Wine. When Carmen was diagnosed with early-onset glaucoma a few years ago, the ensuing ophthalmic visits and tonometric procedures inspired some pretty creepy story ideas and a few chilling nightmares–one of which was Red Sky at Night. On the bright side, she loves animals, cupcakes, & collecting old books. Carmen lives in Melbourne, Australia: carmentudor.net.
