Join The Roses in welcoming our guest, JoAnne Myers today!
When it comes to fiction writing, almost anything goes. That is why I love writing paranormal and fantasy stories. The author can go completely over the edge and make something unbelievable seem believable. When it comes to ghost stories, I get a lot of my inspiration from real life experiences. Not necessarily my own either. I watch television programs that partake of the supernatural and paranormal flare. Programs from ordinary people who claim they experienced either an afterlife experience, or a haunting.

Some of my
stories from my upcoming release “Wicked Intentions” is based on actual
hauntings. Some stories I read about in the newspaper, and others I
watched on true life experience programs. So the next time you get
“writer’s block” try switching on the television. You might find
something to jolt your inspiration.

Sounds like some scary stuff, Joanne! I like ghost stories and finally wrote a ghost into one of my books. I discovered it isn't easy portraying a ghost! Thanks for visiting us today.
Thanks for sharing a little about your stories.
Scary stuff, indeed. Great design on your cover. I may get inspired and write a ghost story someday. Good to have you here!
