This is a video about Ghost Stories and Family Ties: The Paranormal Worlds of Terri Reid

Host Tanya Roundy interviews indie author Terri Reid about her journey from freelance newspaper work and a PR/marketing business to full-time writing after the 2009–2010 market correction. Reid’s debut Kindle novel, Loose Ends (2010), became an early Amazon success, and she built a career by producing books rapidly, including the 20-book Mary O’Reilly paranormal mystery series and the newer MORA (Mary O’Reilly Alden) series. She discusses her approach to ghosts as people, faith- and hope-centered themes, and strong focus on family and community. Reid shares personal experiences collecting local ghost stories, living in a 150-year-old farmhouse, and how her worldview informs her fiction. She highlights her new release, The Secrets of Lilac Lane (MORA #4), and her podcast with her son, Voices From the Attic.
