Really.
Here what it's about..
I have this idea I find rather interesting ~ to write about real mysteries of art and crime (don't ask why that combination), using imagined characters to tell what "really" happened and what lies behind the stage, with a touch of the supernatural (because that's, after all, what I do best)..
It came to me on my class of Art History, when we talked about the Chartres Chatedral and its mysterious architect.
So, I imagined it as a collection of relatively short stories (if I manage to make them so), and I don't know when I'd be writing them yet, but I thought of telling you anyway.
First one would be The Wizard of Chartres ~ it involves love, soul trade and a lot of dreams of art and succes, though all in my head and drafts for now
The second is Daddy's Kiss ~ this one goes around one of the never accepted children of Klimt (he really had a lot of affairs and a whole group of women asked for paternity to be proved for their kids after he died - however, not many got it), and the known mystery of who's the woman on his famous Kiss.. In that one, I have talking pictures, a married writer-lover, madness and murders
The third I have falls under the 'crimes' part ~ it's called My Lover's Victims, and it's a tale told by Jack the Ripper's young wife, who learns about who her beloved really is and why. Surprisingly, that one has murders too, and, knowing me, there will probably be some demons involved as well, lol
See where I'm heading with this? The problem is, I rarely come across mysteries of those kinds.. And I don't want to write about mysteries such as Stonehenge, the Pyramids, Atlantis and the widely known things and places that don't fall under crimes or art.
So, I'd like to hear of other mysteries, if you know any.. Can be from any time period, any place on Earth, as long as there's enough space around it to make characters that don't really exist in history books, but can be believable nevertheless
Well, if you don't, thoughts are welcomed too. This thing's been buzzing around my head for quite some time now, so I thought of sharing it to see what you guys think ^_^
Thanks a lot,
