Write The Book: Conversations on Craft
Arts:Books
Vermont Author Joseph Covais, whose debut novel is Quiet Room, the first in the "Psychotherapy With Ghosts" trilogy (New Line).
This week’s Write the Book Prompt is to consider an alternative to the conventional discovery of a ghost -- that blood curdling scream and dash out of the house with your arms in the air. If you spent the night in an old, unfamiliar home and found a ghost leaning over you in the middle of the night, could you maintain your presence of mind and ask the spirit a question? What might you say? Write a short dialogue and see what comes.
Good luck with your work in the coming week, and tune in next week for another prompt or suggestion.
