What happens when a horror-thriller author refuses to rewrite? In this episode, Thomas Stewart joins host Mark P.J. Nadon to discuss his novel Allison’s Tears, a ghost story written in just three months — every sentence deliberate, every emotion intentional. They talk about writing through instinct, finding empathy in fear, and why giving villains depth makes them even more terrifying. The Thriller Pitch Podcast  is where bestselling, award-winning, and emerging authors share the craft, emotion, and real-world experiences behind today’s most gripping stories.
