What If …

I write about magic, demons, and witches a lot in my books. I love exploring other worlds and thinking up possibilities. When it comes to writing a story one of my favorite phrases is “What if…”

It’s a question that is constantly churning in my head.

What if someone could see ghosts?

What if your dreams took you back in time?

What if you could see the future?

What if half human creatures haunted your house?

What if …

Asking that question is the jumping off point for most everything I write. It tears at my thoughts and awakens my curiosity.

Anything can trigger the question …

A news story

A conversation overheard in the bank

An interesting looking person at the table next to me in a restaurant

A dream

A memory

Life is full of inspiration if you know where to look. It practically slaps me in the face all the time.

I’ll be writing on this blog more often in the future. I’m not sure what I’ll write about, but it will be interesting. I promise.
