I enjoyed writing it so much that after it was finished I found myself still writing ideas down. It is quite cathartic. I then shared some of these ideas with family and friends who encouraged me to take the stories further.(less)

Some fascinating stories, several I had not heard before. I loved reading about Whitford lighthouse, a place I long to visit but am too afraid to, as given my luck I would become its next haunting presence.

The Sea Was a Fair Master by Calvin  Demmer
“On these dark-blue waves, it is the sea who is judge, jury, and executioner. This is another realm, where forgiveness doesn’t exist as on land and where spirits do not find freedom among the clouds. Here, they ride the currents of forever.”
Calvin Demmer

A grim and well researched narrative, that I found plausible. I do not like Megan though. I am interested to see how this progresses.
Bring on ‘Book of the Dead’ Matt Kearns- I am ready.

Kate Atkinson
“Literature had fuelled her childhood fantasies and convinced her that one day she would be the heroine of her own narrative.”
Kate Atkinson, A God in Ruins

Elisabeth Hewer
“god should have made girls lethal
when he made monsters of men”
Elisabeth Hewer

Harlan Ellison
“The only thing worth writing about is people. People. Human beings. Men and women whose individuality must be created, line by line, insight by insight. If you do not do it, the story is a failure. [...] There is no nobler chore in the universe than holding up the mirror of reality and turning it slightly, so we have a new and different perception of the commonplace, the everyday, the 'normal', the obvious. People are reflected in the glass. The fantasy situation into which you thrust them is the mirror itself. And what we are shown should illuminate and alter our perception of the world around us. Failing that, you have failed totally.”
Harlan Ellison

Nikita Gill
“Girls like her were born in a storm. They have lightning in their souls. Thunder in their hearts. And chaos in their bones.”
