Abandoned Dreams

I have been fascinated by old, abandoned houses for as long as I can remember. Countless times, I have discovered and snuck into these places to explore and imagine the family or families that once lived in them. The mystery surrounding these structures is tangible and if a person stands still long enough, the walls will begin to talk.

These homes were once someone’s dream. Whether they were built from scratch or restored, a claim was staked on the place, and the people who moved in made it their own.

But what went wrong?

What is it that causes some people to leave their dream to rot, fester, and mold? And what drives the next visionary to make it their own? What happens when that dream becomes a nightmare?

Those questions and more are part of what I explore in Adverse Possession, my novel set to be released October 27, 2015.
