Get in, get in, get in.
My heart pounding in my ears, vibrating at the top of my head.
Hands sticky with blood.
And that’s how it started so many years ago.
An image in my head but I didn’t know what it meant.
I sat down and was like a ghost hovering over the story.
Watching every moment play out.
Till the shocking end.
Ah, that makes sense now.
I’d accidentally written a different kind of slasher in the woods story.
The next thing that happened was finding out that the second book would be very different.
Almost another genre, in a way.
And if I could pull that off, the third book would be the big finish. A homage to everything that ever came before.
After that, I’d be done with this story.
It’s been rattling around my head for years now.
Except.
Except, I now know what happens after the events of the 3rd book.
There was a clue at the end of the first book.
Again, another image. An image in my head that meant one thing, but slowly unraveled after all these years.
Ah, so this is what happens next.
Its moments like these that make me love stories so much.
How each moment can spiral off into infinite worlds of possibility.
I guess life is like that too.
