Writing on the back burner, but many new plots are simmering in my little mind. I'm currently finishing up another novel, Lou Who, a little ditty about a lady with Alzheimer's who crosses paths with a long dead vengeful death who decides to take a ride in her body.


Here's my original thoughts on the plot:

A patient (woman) has been diagnosed and is going downhill fast.  An evil entity, spirit, time traveler or some unknown thing, possesses, reincarnates or takes over the body of the inflicted person, becomes trapped and struggles for control. The spouse, family, friends and doctors claim miracle, but then it begins to become unraveled when the creature within displays traits never displayed by the cured person. The doctors can’t explain the personality transformation, new ground being broken. The cured person (late forties to fifty-ish, in excellent shape until this happens) has an insatiable appetite for sex and murder. A vicious struggle for control of the person is a major part of the plot. Sadly, if the one battling the evil thing within wins, the ultimate cost will be a return to the clutches of the disease. The female body owner struggles with this decision, aware of the consequences, remaining healthy or dying. Does she allow this thing to share control or find some way to force it from her?

It has evolved greatly from my original thoughts from above and I've completed over 300 pages. The setting is Greenwood, S.C.

This is just one more of over ten completed novels waiting in the wings for their opportunity to see the light of day in published world. I'm thinking going strictly eBook on a few of them. It would be quicker and much cheaper. What do you think about that idea, instead of hard copies?
