Ghost Town
In my final blog about the ‘Ghost Town’ series, I’m going to look at the entire series and where the inspirations and motivations came from. To map out a nine-part series from beginning to end is a daunting task, trying to detail all the people who come in and out of the series, how they interact with each other, and keeping the story fresh, congruent, and interesting.

Ethan Drew
Continuing with the ‘Ghost Town’ themed blogs, which I’m still taking questions for, today I’m going to write about the main character in the first book, Ethan Drew. The first novel is seen through the eyes of Ethan, narrated from his journal. Ethan has no idea what he’s in for when he first arrives in Whiterock nor does he put the pieces together very quickly.

When I first started writing I read as much as I could about how to tell a good story. It’s amazing how just very simple changes in the words that are used can change the entire makeup of a phrase even though they say the exact same things. Depending on the situation, sometimes you are forced into using a certain form or style of writing, but when you tell a good story you can let it flow freely.
