3 Weeks To Launch! Plus More of Chapter 1

3 WEEKS TO LAUNCH! PLUS MORE OF CHAPTER 1

So the picture above shows you the cover of the book. Hope you like it. I'm currently just waiting from CreateSpace to see the proof. If it meets with my expectations then it'll be ready for launch and I'll be good to go. 

Don't forget to check out my posts from "10 Weeks To Lunch" all the way to this post if you would like to read the chapter from the beginning. (Once I have the entire section released, I will provide a link to all of them in a single blog where you can read the whole thing. :)

In the meantime, it's all about getting the word out there now. Almost there!

So here is more of Chapter 1:

Chapter 1 (cont.)

the full spectrum is usually the first one to spot something.

However, nothing was happening. The house was in fact eerily quiet.

‘Peter, are you seeing anything?’ Sam asked.

‘No, nothing.’ He replied.

She needed to dig deep. ‘Hmm, where are you?’ 

Both Sam and Lucy know that paranormal events happen in waves. You might go hours before capturing everything all at once, then nothing for the rest of the night. Sometimes, the place comes alive, almost right away. When that happens, the investigation is a busy one.

This was not one of those.

Lucy kept looking for an explanation, a physical reason behind the haunting, however, she couldn’t pinpoint anything. To her, if anything was to happen tonight, she might not be able to explain it away as easily.

Hours went by, both Lucy and Sam were dutifully recording and looking for any sign of the woman. It was approaching 3am, both Liz and Peter had fallen asleep on the couch, however, Sam and Lucy were continuing to investigate. They go through the night from dusk to dawn, before they call it quits.

Suddenly a noise came from the attic. It was the sound of footsteps.

‘I was just up there. There was nothing going on. I thought I was done sweeping it.’ Lucy recounted.

Sam looked at her. ‘I guess not. The static camera is up there, don’t worry.’

Both Liz and Peter woke up from the sound.

‘Oh no, here she comes.’ She uttered.

Peter squeezed her hand, gently. ‘Lucy and Sam are here, don’t worry.’

Liz felt a sense of reassurance but she couldn’t shake the feeling of fear either.

Sam started the questioning. ‘Who are you? Can you knock on a wall if you want to communicate? Two knocks for “yes”, one for “no”. Do you understand?’

They waited for a response. A few moments of silence, pausing to see if it understood before two knocks on a wall came.

‘Okay, an intelligent response.’ Sam expressed.

Lucy needed to know, male or female. ‘Are you a woman?’

Again, Lucy and Sam had listened for the sound. Then, two slow thumps.

‘Where is that coming from?’

Sam shook her head. ‘I don’t know.’ 

Before they could ask another question, Lucy heard “hey” whispered in her ear.

‘Who was that?’ She asked.

Sam looked at her. ‘What are you talking about, no one mentioned anything.’ 

‘No, I just heard the word “hey” spoken right beside my-’ Lucy began.

‘You’re what?’ Sam asked.

‘Shh... I can see something on the full spectrum.’ Lucy quickly stated.

There, in front of the two women, Lucy could see a faint shape on the camera’s screen. It seemed to be slightly smaller than they were and possibly took the form of a female.

‘She’s here.’ Sam voiced.

Hope you have an awesome day (and week)!
