It has finally dawned on me after all these years of writing that I am haunted. No matter the fact that I’ve moved every few years (I like change) I am haunted by the same beings.

Yes, that’s right, haunted. The various strong characters I’ve written in stories past and present, never go away. They are always with me, asking me to either reincarnate them in some way or continue whatever adventure we enjoyed together.

It’s obvious that writers as a whole have overactive imaginations and are mostly sleep deprived creatures; as our minds won’t always shut off when we tell them to.

Lately it’s two of the characters in my recently published book, The Charon Covenant that have taken to haunting me. Dara Drew the female heroin and the female alien that Dara hasn’t met yet except through telepathy. I had put them away for a bit to do all the hard work of marketing. The radio shows and various interviews and some book signings here and there. I’ve also had to learn this new world of blogging and newsletters. The blogging is enjoyable as it feels as if I’m writing to some long lost friends.

I have also been working on a new book which is finished and off to the professional editors before making its rounds to agents, publishers and such. It’s a complete departure from The Charon Covenant, which has aroused some jealousy among its characters for their turn in the forefront.

So, although I was working on a few short story ideas, I see it’s time to begin new adventures with my old friends from The Charon Covenant so they at least will stop haunting me.
