My sister and I came up with the idea of whispering trees together; I wanted something a bit like the folktale "Mr. Fox", where there's a message written over the doorway: "Be bold, be bold, but not too bold, lest that your heart's blood should run cold." Something to ratchet up the tension and general creepiness of the atmosphere. Again, thanks for reading; I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

I just read your story--it was very good, and of course very creepy, haha. I <i>love</i> ghost stories, always have, and folktales are awesome too, so of course yours was a great read! I like the whispering trees especially--so haunting. Great job! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13960038755760757791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1257908629733815484.post-39984766370518500992015-02-05T10:41:51.180-08:002015-02-05T10:41:51.180-08:00Thanks!

I always focus on all the flaws in my own work, so it's SUPER nice to hear that you enjoyed it :) I liked The Highwayman when I read it (that was quite awhile ago, though...) mostly because it's so ghostly and atmospheric.

I read it through and I have to admit it was pretty creepy—but it also reminded me of the "Highwayman" poem for a little while there, until Jenny went a little homicidal. Still, nice work! :)Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16797485444727976121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1257908629733815484.post-34127289283389398812015-02-04T07:34:28.663-08:002015-02-04T07:34:28.663-08:00Congratulations of being published!
