Story World

My First Post

I have spent the last week working on my first post for this site. I drew a few cards out of my Tales From the Haunted House deck and I wrote a few notes using the prompts on the back of the cards just to get started. My thinking was that if I sit down and try to write a little using the prompts then I could have something more to work from besides the illustration on the card. I guess I wanted to sort of think about it first before I started the actual writing.


After I got started writing the piece, I thought it might be fun to start with my favorite card, and use the hidden clue in the illustration to connect to another card. I guess instead of this being a short story, I decided to write it more like a novel with chapter. I would like for it to be a chapter book kind of story, but I think to do that I will need to change the character to children instead of adults. I don't know yet. I am just sort of experimenting.
