This is a link to my blog about the germ of an idea that has taken root in my mind as I watched TV last night - which may prove interesting if you have ever wondered how someone get's an idea for book!

Last night, I began work on a novel I want to write about past life regression / children believing that they are someone else or have imaginary friends. Why schizophrenic's choose the characters that inhabit their minds, telling them to perform certain tasks / have inner conversations. All of these subjects have fascinated me for the majority of my adult life. Seeking explanation; I have studied various psychological text books / internet and interviews.
This will be a fictional novel and centres around my interest in Noetic Science and what happens to the energy we release immediately after death (known as the soul to some). This energy cannot disintegrate, therefore, sits in the atmosphere all around us (do you see where I am going with this), my fictional tale has the energy being absorbed into a childs brain at birth, hence giving them a multiple presence in the mind. Past life regression uncovers details of the "soul energy" contained within a person, details of that energy's previous life etc, not our own pre-existence. Without this energy (from the dead), life of humans on this planet would not be able to continue.
Obviously this is a fictional tale with a great deal of scientific fact thrown in and is centred around the lives of four main characters, one being a child of six yrs. My niece; Sophie, believed for many years that she was somebody else. She re-named herself, dressed a certain way, even spoke in an odd accent sometimes. This worried some members of the family, but I found the whole thing interesting and because she was not scared or misbehaving, advised that they let it run its course. Oh, and she knew songs that she could not possibly have heard / learned. Sophie does not remember any of this now (six years on), though she still has bizarre dreams - just like her Aunty Kiki.
A dream has brought this all together for me and i'm really excited about writing it, so much so that I stayed up most of last night consumed in it all, neglecting my current WIP!! (Could have been the wine)
Is this something that people will read??
My brain would not settle until I had written down all of the character information / scenes / details. It's still buzzing now and I am beginning to think that I am going mad.
Anyway, I have now opened up my current MS in an attempt to re-immerse myself in the world of angels.
Anyones opinions would be greatfully received before I go and spend more hours / pages / words on this idea (though not until mu current MS is finished). I have already written 17k words on the idea as detailed above!
