tinhuvielMy characters have hi-jacked the narrative of The Augury of Gideon. I've already written more than 3000 words and I've passed the 80k mark. I figured I only had a few thousand words to go because I have the characters all converging on Brown Mountain. But Kallum reminded me that he'd always wanted to know about his Vampiric parents, so he's gone to their hotel room to find out about this. This opens up the story of Rebekah and Mephistopheles, which I now have to tell, from Rebekah's perspective, or so it appears right now. That will be a few extra thousand words, I'm thinking. Then they can go to Brown Mountain.
Why are the Vampires going to Brown Mountain? Because I've always wanted to go there and see the Witch lights. Brown Mountain is approximately two hours east of Asheville and is the inspiration for the book Escape to Witch Mountain by Alexander Key. My conjecture for my book is that the spirits of the trees are restless and need to sing their song. The song is the one Kallum and Cadmus have to sing to free the Vampires who want the curse removed. So the Vampires must make a pilgrimage to the mountain itself and interact with the Witch lights. I can't wait to write that part. I want it to be beautiful, eerie, and fascinating.
If I can pull it off, I'm going to celebrate by drinking more Mountain Dew Voltage. That Romulan Ale is insane.
