When I’m grown up, I want to be famous for writing Excellent Cosy Murder Mysteries. I’m not sure exactly I’ll be grown up enough to do that, but, at the age of 57, it had better happen soon …
haha!
I’m realising, of course that wanting something is only any good, if you take action to make that thing happen. And when you’re a writer, putting in the early steps toward a new writing project is good, but only if actually writing of the written work happens as well.
I have a town, main characters, interesting other characters, a bad Mayor, a wise old dog, a wise old lady, an overseas friend, a rather cute Deputy Mayor, and I have I think it’s twelve (or maybe could be twenty), titles for mysteries, with brief descriptions of what the story is about, beyond the fact that there is at least one death.
Meredith has some questions she wants answers to! Will she be able to solve this little mystery? I think she will, if she can get her friends together to help her! Maybe she could take her next door neighbours dog for a walk around where those container were, and see if the discover any clues … Mister is very good at finding clues for Meredith!
Are you intrigued in what this little mystery is all about? I am too! I’d better write it, to find out! Finding things to write about is easy, if you keep your eyes open, and ask yourself, and (others) questions. I wasn’t able to ask the people in the photo any questions, but hey, I’m a fiction writer, I can make up the answers, and I might very well do just that. Perhaps I could write a little mystery story …
What do you think? Would you like to read such a story? Perhaps a flash fiction piece, a 100 word mystery? We shall see, watch this space!
