H.E. Bulstrode
Inspiration for stories comes from many different sources. Ideas for shorter pieces of fiction – short stories, novelettes and novellas – tend to be prompted by direct experience, observation of something unusual, or even a dream should it be particularly vivid. I also read widely, taking in a lot of history, folklore, politics and science, as well as fictional works. It’s all grist to the literary mill. Longstanding interests in certain issues, such as the conflict between freethought and dogma, constitute the kernel of my forthcoming novels.

Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. It has certainly prompted me to see out The Ghost of Scarside Beck'. Did you and your wife experience the presence in the same way or simultaneously? As, perhaps, a good follow up to my initial question, why is it that you are drawn to the supernatural especially if you regard yourself as 'skeptical by inclination'.?
