LIFE’S A HOOT – V3ISS3
It’s been an interesting month—lots of illness in the
DelCampo household—one after another we each got blasted with head colds,
stomach viruses, the works—but we all survived and are hanging in there.
My granddaughter is excited about the impending spring. She’s becoming quite a good reader, too, and
asks about holidays that appear on her calendar. She doesn’t miss a trick, and much of
everything she takes in ends up in her journal.
At five, she’s smart as a whip, and destined to become my little writing
buddy. I’m betting she’ll exceed any
modest accomplishment of mine, though, and probably before she hits her
teens!
In Owl’s Nest there’s a new novel in the works: “Cloister.”
I just started the actual writing, having worked on the loose outline,
main plot, character list, and research this past week. I’m liking the main storyline, which is
shaping up nicely. Not telling any more
than that right now—but it’s chock full of ooky!
Just like this issue of Owl's Eye View.
Hard-working Mamie Colbert’s story is first in line this
issue from Nathan Williams in ‘Swooping Through the Years,’ giving a whole new
perspective to the old adage, “Waste not want not.”
Max and Meredith continue to work out their problems in
‘From the Perch.” I’m waiting to see how
things will go myself…sometimes the muse doesn’t even tell me what’s going to
happen….
Lucy Bernelli updates us about her Haudenosaunee quest to
follow her dreams…literally…in this month’s ‘On the WindSpirit.’ Spend as much time with her as you can…for
now…
‘Screech On!’ has a chilling little tale for you this
month. Larry Nunn’s first hand observations
about a mysterious fiddler will give you a whopping dose of ooky!
Also, there is a mini-chill from Melanie in ‘Macabre
Mirth.’ Cheers!
My story ‘Previous Owner’ should caution you about buying a
car at an auction, especially a police auction, and keep you from getting taken
for a ride…
My second story, ‘Writer God’ illustrates a worry of horror
writers everywhere…
And of course, if all that isn’t enough ooky for you,
there’s always the ongoing story of M*E*D*S, the latest installment a whole
deep freeze full of chills to keep you awake nights!
Should keep you busy for the month. Chills!
