Introduction

Hello everyone, I’m Lexxie Scott. As you can tell from the blog’s title, I’m an author and this blog is about my books - published and in progress. I’ve been writing since I was around twelve or so, definitely seventh grade. I always had a notebook with me and would write in class once my reading, test, or other work was finished. That’s also when I created two of my characters; Tiffany and Joe Franks, along with a number of the agents they work with. Remarkably, however, they are not in the first book I published.

Those stories will never see the light of day, but a few of the ideas might make their way into something more.

My hope here is to talk about each book I have published, maybe share some information not in the books, and some background on the characters and locations. I’ve not had much chance to talk with my readers for my novels, and I will answer questions and comments as well, but will not respond to any flames. I write fan fiction as well (under a pen name) and am used to flames, as I believe all authors are.

A few things about me. I love cats. I’m a rather voracious reader, my favorite authors are Terry Pratchett and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. My favorite Holmes is Jeremy Brett. I love doing research for my novels. I can’t draw worth a darn, which sucks because I have plans for an illustrated guide to one series. I love travel but hate physically getting places. Finally, Tiffany has Fibromyalgia, a condition I share.

So, welcome, and I hope you enjoy what I have to share.

    I look forward to cheering you on!

    I haven't read as many of your books as I had thought, so perhaps I will widen my horizons!

Tails from the Oddside 2: Point of View

*I work in a hospital as a Security Officer. One of our many and varied duties is maintaining the morgue. That is to say, we sign the deceased in and release them to the correct funeral home when the family makes their wishes known. I think that almost anyone knows hospitals are haunted. There are certain areas that are more apt for paranormal activity than others. The morgue is one of them. I was walking back to the office one morning and started wondering what the ghostly point of view is. Since I can't ask them, I came up with this.* Given the topics of the previous two novellas and some of my other works, I think it's fairly obvious I believe in ghosts. We'll go into a much deeper discussion during one of the series, but I do believe and have seen two - and possibly a ghost cat. I'm still not certain about that last one, but my cat (the only animal in the house) was with me when I saw the shape move. Our morgue really doesn't have a haunted feel to it. The

Tales from the Oddside 5: Knife to the Heart

 *It's not common for me to remember my dreams. I don't know if I just don't naturally slip into the deep sleep needed to be able to dream, or if they're fading out on me for a reason. This story here is based on a dream I had while reading about psychopaths for a novel I have in-progress. Since this dream, and one very disturbing nightmare, I've stopped reading research materials at bedtime." That in-progress novel is finished, published, and will be talked about soon. For this story, too much talking will spoil the whole thing, but it looks at what happens when an adopted phychopath is finally able he cannot have / do something he wants. It also looks at the rather chilling results.
