"I’ve shed my skin, like the serpent before me, resurrecting."
Lindsey
I had originally planned a simple Lindsey is abducted by a serial killer, his seventh victim. However, when the killer dumps Lindsey, she’s still alive – barely. She claims to remember nothing, befriends a young cop, steals his gun, goes to and confronts the killer. I’d planned 3 parts, maybe 3,000 words. I think I had something corny in the young cop catches up just in time to get between Lindsey and the killer when Lindsey pulls the trigger.
I wasn’t much into part two when I deleted what I had and opened a new document. Once I got into Lindsey’s head, the story became more about the collateral damage, the damage done not only to Lindsey, but to the people around her.
