Boo!

Halloween is just around the corner, and I cannot wait! I love this time of year… the leaves turning brown, the fresh it-just-rained-for-the-first-time-this-season smell in the air, the weather cool enough to pull out my awesome boots that have been hiding all summer. And the candy. Any holiday that involves free candy is a-okay with me. So, getting in the spooky spirit, I thought I’d share some of Trigger Happy’s finest Halloween moments from years past.


My first Halloween – look at that, I went as a baby from the ‘70s!



Little Gypsy Girl (Though, coming from a California hippy family, that also doubled as every-day wear.)


Someone get that doctor a wet-nap – stat!


One sassy clown (Actually, my great-aunt handmade that costume for my mother when she was a kid… and it lasted through 4 more unruly munchkins. I won a costume contest in 3rd grade for it!)


All the Halliday kiddies – my brother (superman) my sister (the fairy princess – notice the aluminum foil crown – tre chic!), Mom (the Parisian artiste) and me (the farm girl).


Here's what my good friend, Jax Cassidy, and I dressed as last year: I was the detective, she was the cat burglar. Our outfits were a lot sexier before it decided to be freezing cold in L.A. in October (never happens!), so we traded in our fishnets for jeans and stocking caps. Still very fun.

This year, since we dangerous divas here at Killer Fiction all love dressing up so much, we thought it would be fun to do a little cyber Halloween Costume Contest! All you have to do to enter is send in a picture of what your cyber costume is this year. It can be a real costume you wore, a drawing, a cartoon, a pic of a costume you found online – anything! Just send the picture (or a link to it) to: gemmasreadermail@gmail.com and, on Oct, 31st, we’ll post the funniest, coolest, and most creative ones, and you will all get to vote for your fav. The winner will get a little spa set of Autumn apple scented goodies and whatever fun reads we can scare up.

Okay, I’ll go first… here’s my cyber costume this year (in fact, I love it so much, I may ever really wear it for Halloween):




Barbie!! The ultimate blonde. ;)
