With four Gwen Andrews mysteries published, I’ve been struggling to create Gwen’s story #5.
The location determined, multiple characters introduced, and victim discovered, I was hard-pressed to choose one of them as the culprit. The names have been tumbling over each other in an attempt to convince me of their reason for the crime.
When I awoke from dreamland this morning, the culprit was revealed! I now have a clear path and can write with abandon as I incorporate the innocent suspects into the chapters, dropping clues as I go like Hansel and Gretel.
The other half of this story involves the romantic… or non-romantic… subplot between my Gwen and her hopeful love interest. And let’s not forget the ghost of her deceased husband!
As always since my retirement, I enjoy creating a story that my readers will enjoy. Now get to work!
