I'm the reincarnation of Shirley Jackson!

On the back of a book of Jackson's collected stories, she was described as "a troubled woman-
addicted to drinking, smoking, amphetamines, and chocolate. Afflicted by weight and health problems, in later years she was increasingly afraid to leave her house."
Now all I have to do is wait for 'the famous writer' part to happen, and I'm all set!

My favorite is "We Have Always Lived In The Castle", supposed to be "a studied and compelling rendering of insanity", the spookiest part is that I kept thinking, when I was reading the story, what's so insane about that? Sounds kind of nice to me...
