![]() ![]() I felt like there was a big opportunity there. I remember in high school, every time a scary movie would come out, my friends would go right away.

Gray just sort of went well with Claudia. ![]() When I was a little kid, I heard people make up other names to write under and I thought, "Cool!" I'm a big fan of Roman history and I, Claudius was the thing that got me into it. ![]() Why did you pick that alias?Ĭlaudia: I picked the pseudonym just because I thought it would be fun. Take notes!Ĭlaudia Gray is just a pseudonym and your real name is Amy Vincent. Just for SPOT.ph, the two talk pseudonyms, their writing process, and the biggest perk of being a New York Times best-selling author. Roux explores spirit possession and mind control, while Gray uses physics and parallel universes to build her story. ![]() The former is a horror story that unfolds in a haunted mental institution, accompanied by chilling photographs from real asylums and vintage carnivals the latter, a tale of a daughter who chases her father's killer to the ends of the world (and other worlds besides). (SPOT.ph) If you’ve read enough about vampires and you’re looking for a solid YA palate cleanser, pick up Madeleine Roux's Asylum and its sequel Sanctum, and Claudia Gray's A Thousand Pieces of You. ![]()
