Work currently in progress...

I haven't posted for a while due to other commitments, so I think it is about time I pulled my finger out.

Aside from the short stories and impressionist writings that swamp my computer, my current project has changed to a short story / novel.  This is a huge step for me and over the past few weeks my brain has been suffering from high levels of neurotic orgasms as I tried to think of and build a story.  Yes, I have one now.

Synopsis:  Set in a shabby rented house share, Jack lies in bed haunted by memories of abuse.  His parents never loved him and he has always felt guilty about their death for unknown reasons.  Developing the illusion that the 'they', external forces, are after him, Jack is fearful of going outside.  In sensing something wrong with his behaviour, his house mates decide to investigate further, an investigation that reveals Jack's deeper troubled mind.

This is a brief summary and one that is open to revision as my mind wonders.  If anyone is out there, let me know what you think.

Thanks!
