Growing up, Joseph Brink steered clear of scary stories. Now he writes delightfully scary stories that give kids courage to face the frightening things in their own lives, intentionally weaving in threads of light, beauty, and hope. When he’s not writing, brainstorming a new story, or reading 100-year-old horror novels and books about cryptids, Joseph loves spending time with his kid siblings, reading aloud to them, and sharing his favourite books.
