Character Sketch/Outline for “Evolution of Jake”

The following is a general outline and character sketch for my short story, “The Evolution of Jake” (I think I am going to change that title before the end, but for now, it will do).

We all have a couple of skeletons in our closets. Jake Matthews has more than a few, and a couple of ghosts, too. As an alcoholic writer, Jake is forced to confront these ghosts when an editor sends him on an assignment with a team of paranormal investigators on a ghost hunt. Skeptical at first, Jake soon finds more than he bargained for with this assignment!

OK, so it needs some work. Nonetheless, it’s a start, and a start that I desperately need. NaNoWriMo is just 5 days away. Expect to see scene one on November 1st. This will set the stage for the rest of the story, and is sure to be a bit gut wrenching.

Until next time…

Stumble it!
