Something For Yo—

ALRIGHT!
WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR A TITLE. LET'S GO.

So YES that last post, looking back over it, doesn't make ANY sense in my head AT ALL. If I'm honest, quite a lot of it is probably gibberish and nothing to take any notes down from.

Unless you ARE doing a study of me, then in that case you'll make me blush. Talk to me, I'll tell you all about me.

BUT what's going on at the moment with my writing is that I made a resolution to write at least one 80,000 word long story this year, and so write it I tried. I'm still writing this, as it was delayed by GCSEs (and this other thing that I'm about to talk about hold on SLOW DOWN.) But I don't think I'm gonna "release" that one because it's not exactly a story I'm amazed about, and in reality it's for three friends of mine, so don't get hyped for that, all of you ... at least hopefully one of you?

And so, because I'm not going to release that, I thought to myself, "Well, you gotta write SOMETHING for people to read this year, man." And I completely agreed with myself (I'm never wrong). Then the question was — WHAT do I write for you to read?

And then I had a moment of genius (which happens all the time anyway.)

I thought I'd write you another Halloween story.

Remember last year? I wrote a short story called I Remember the Clown for Halloween, and I thought, I'll do that again this year (not the same story, don't panic). And THEN I thought — why not do that every year anyway? A different Halloween spook each year. I thought that was a good idea. I hope it is.

And so I'm writing this Halloween story for you all to read, and I'm already 8000 words into it. If I'm honest, I'm not all sure how long it's gonna be, but I DO know it's gonna be better than I Remember the Clown. I won't reveal the title yet though, because I like to think it'll draw out hype for my non-existent audience.

BUT (again) I shall tell you the Halloween Theme for this year. Last year it was creepy clowns and reuniting — this year it shall be about ghosts and change.
