Bow For The Holidays
I have gotten completely enveloped by the RB 2.0 revisions this last week. I have a very solid outline of scenes and am working on actually writing out these scenes every day. One thing that I decided to do was to describe, in detail, Bow's first kill. Well that is kind of obvious because I should be describing all of the kills, but the first is of significant importance because it is the lead domino that sets off a chain reaction for the rest of the story. I shed some light on how Bow thinks and how he feels. I've often wondered....What goes through a serial killers mind when he's getting ready to kill someone?
That question has always haunted me because I can't even begin to fathom what goes through a deranged person's mind as they're committing such horrendous acts of evil. I attempt to answer this question in a flashback scene of Bow's first kill. Additionally, I attempt to explain why Bow uses red bows on all of his victims. Oh believe me, there is a reason that he chooses to decorate the bodies with this otherwise festive material.
On a final note, Red Bow takes place in the month of December, around the holidays, so my daily quote that I've been keeping in the back of my mind as I write is "Bow For The Holidays." I am the writer who is thinking like Bow for the sake of the story. So in essence, I'm "Bow For The Holidays." Don't worry, I'm not going to start offing people. I'm simply stating that I'm further immersing myself into this story and the writing process to try to produce a better end product. Let's see if it actually pays off.
