I am a writer and creator. Currently #amwriting my horror novel, Eyes On Willow, and its companion book, Birthed From the Lighthouse. Looking to connect with fellow writers.

Yesterday, as the #Easter Bunny retired for another year, I placed my last period in #EyesOnWillow.

I've been #writing short stories since I was 8, and have written many, but as I tried my hand on a #novel, I did so as a backdrop to a busy career and a family. For 5 years I have struggled to fit writing into my life, but yesterday I finally achieved my goal. Novel #1 is complete, and call me a sinner for the internal pride is blooming.

The cloud's neurons fire.

to earth to take root.

Today's prompt:

Behind the chorus of anxious chatter and the wind’s somber breath, Hilda Bree screamed. The crowd hushed for a moment, listening to the thud of blind #body parts banging against the floor and walls of the old home. She screamed again and the people of Lowick grew still, smirking as she hollered. Hilda Bree had brought misery to Lowick, had killed three of the children she had taught in the schoolhouse, and the sound of her suffering had aroused those she once called friends.

It had become a habit that the onset of a headache led the woman to seek out her usual medicine down on Baker Street where the police rarely patrolled, even though they were well versed on what went on down there. At the moment, she wasn’t thinking about her street pharmacist down on Baker, something her therapist would have called a “good first #step.”
