From time to time when we are running errands and driving
around, Scott makes suggestions about stuff I should be writing. The other day
Scott suggested an anthology idea that struck me as interesting. The title of
the anthology--- DEAD BECAUSE OF TED. It would contain 15 or so stories that
revolved around the idea that one of the characters was dead because of Ted.
Ted would have to be alive, but somehow he had played a role, directly or
indirectly, in why a character in a story was dead. The story would explain why
the character was dead and therefore could be a mystery, crime fiction, or
thriller.
Seemed like a heck of a good idea to me. Making it happen
would be the issue.
It is a catchy title, and anthologies with a theme of sorts do tend to do better than those that lack a theme.
