While I am busy editing a manuscript for a vampire hunter novel, my mind
is beginning to wander away to new territory. I haven’t written any new stories
for a couple of months, and now I’m feeling restless. I do have a few
unfinished manuscripts that I should probably attend to, but surely, I can
allow time for another project in the meantime?
Anyway, I found a little inspiration at the caves I saw when I visited
Beeston Castle in Cheshire. As an English Heritage member, I have visited this
castle a few times during the past couple of years, but up to now I had not
seen the caves. I think my children had been difficult or unwilling to walk
that far, although as it turns out, the caves are not too far from the main
entrance to the castle grounds. We couldn’t actually go inside the caves as
they are fenced off, but I pressed my face to the iron bars and let my imagination
wander… would we find a vampire lurking in the darkness, or a pack of hungry
werewolves? Or maybe something more sinister still… Let’s see what happens when
I start to write a new story.
