The earlier book I was trying to write meandered about, started going nowhere, and then just lied down and went off to sleep. Maybe I’ll revive it some day, don’t know yet but I’m off once again.
The idea for this book came when I was tearing my hair out (figuratively) on the last story I was working on. I was trying to focus on as few characters as possible as well as keep the number of locations to a minimal. Then I hit a mother lode, so to speak, and came up with a most unique twist in a haunted house story that even surprised me.
I know I’ve done this again and again and never completed a first draft in under 15 days but I’m going to keep on trying. I’m doing this for myself, not for anyone else.
I write about 500 odd words a couple of days back but I’ll start the 15 day challenge (part 3) as of today, July 8, 2008. Give myself a bit of a head start. Yeah, it’s my challenge and I set the rules 
Will endeavor to write on this blog everyday.
