Photo Inspiration and Rowanne Blackwell

Phew, I almost didn't make my deadline. But it's still only the second week of January so I'm good. :) What I've decided to do for now is post some photos that have given me inspiration for my stories. I'll also be posting photos that I've found later that help strengthen my own original ideas. This first picture is one that I found after I had already created the character but she fit what I already knew about her that the photo was perfect. So without further ado, let me introduce you to Rowanne Blackwell.

Rowanne Blackwell

Rowanne Blackwell was born on October 19 in the late eighteen hundreds. She lives with her father, Reginald, her mother, Lucinda, her older brother Edward, and her younger sister Christine. The Blackwells have recently moved to Eastwich Manor. A beautiful old house steeped in a dark history. The house was nearly burned down once. The very first night there Rowanne has a supernatural encounter with a young boy which leaves her rather shaken. Slowly she learns that not all is as it seems and that history is about to repeat itself again. Rowanne finds a confederate in her brothers friend and their closest neighbor, Oliver Madden. It will take all Rowanne's strength and courage to discover the hidden past of Eastwich manor and to prevent her family from suffering the same horrible fate.
