Why Halloween is awesome.

I love Halloween. I always have. I love the spooky stories, the colors, and okay, the candy is probably my prime motivation. The one thing that I really love about it is that you can be something other than yourself. You can be that super hero you look up to or the monster that invades your nightmares. Halloween can be full of mystery. The shadows from the house lights can take on a whole new life while you're walking down the street to get your treasure. Halloween can also be cute and sweet.

On a normal day, we writers come up with a ton of ideas on everyday things, but Halloween provides us with even more. Yes, more, especially if you're a paranormal/scifi freak like me. It makes me want to write a chilling ghost story or create some sort of monster that eats moldy pumpkins. In a way, it's distracting me from my new story with ideas that want to be written, which isn't a bad thing if you know how to handle them.

Do you like Halloween?

If you do, what's your favorite part?

A short post today. I've got an ear infection that won't quit so I need to get some meds.

Have a great weekend!
