Well, it\u2019s time I pulled back the cover and shared a bit more detail on Regan\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n<p>I mention in the story that Regan\u2019s grandfather was an explorer, journeying throughout Egypt and going on countless expeditions.<\/p>\n<p>One of Preston\u2019s discoveries is \u201cmummy brown\u201d paint. In the 16th and 17th centuries, mummy brown was a real substance, made from white pitch, myrrh, and the ground-up remains of Egyptian mummies. Apparently, though, once artists found out what was actually in the paint they were so fond of using, populatiry for the substance died off (hardy-har-har).<\/p>\n<p>Yeah\u2026I know. When I stumbled across that little tidbit of information, I knew I had to use it in a story! In fact, I built the entire story from that little nugget alone.<\/p>\n<p>I looked over my original story notes from when I wrote the story back in 2009 and the original plot didn\u2019t vary much from what I first came up with while brainstorming.<\/p>\n<p>During those many brainstorming sessions, I built a lot of backstory, much of which is only hinted at in the short story, but that doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019ve forgotten about it. In fact, my plan now is to write some companion pieces and put together a collection of stories all centered on the Lockwood family.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve already actually written a \u201cprequel\u201d story of sorts, which highlight Preston Lockwood\u2019s exploration and discovery in Egypt, as well as another story which focusses on a cousin of Regan\u2019s and her own strange discovery that is related to the family secret.<\/p>\n<p>With a few other ideas in various stages of development, I\u2019m really looking forward to getting to work on the collection and indulging in my fascination with all things Ancient, all things Egyptian, more strange discoveries and of course\u2026more mummies!<\/p>\n<p>When I workshopped this story, all of my beta readers said they wanted more, and I have every intention of delivering!<\/p>\n<p>So there you go! A little glimpse into how Regan and the Lockwoods came to be, and a teaser of more to come!<\/p>\n<p>I hope you enjoy the story! May it scare the bejeezus out of you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inklings is a series of posts where I share the inspiration and a bit of background on how a story seed became a finished tale.
