Author's Notes
If you are curious why I am doing this, I have a few things I would like to say about the two Relative Secrets Stories.
They are my only Hannah fanfictions, so far.
Why suspense? It is a genre I have enjoyed for most of my life. Also, it can be very difficult to write. It is not one of the those stories that you can write as you go. Before even start writing, you have to know where you are going with this story. You don't need every chapter outlined, but a good idea. I also like this genre, because it can be difficult to try and throw off the readers. Not to truly confuse them, but somewhat lead them in another direction. On top of that, it is a story that you can surprise your readers the most with various things.
The biggest clues to these stories are usually my mistakes. They are not there on purpose, but I put them in there without realizing it. If you get the chance, read Chapter 5 of Relative Secrets. See if you can spot a big give away to who is not Jason Raine. DO NOT PUT IT IN A REVIEW.
As I said during Relative Secrets 2, if somethings seem obvious, don't tell me in your reviews. They are meant to be that way. In chapter 1 of Relative Secrets. When I made it obvious that Miley had a twin, it was planned, I was going to bring him into the picture early.
The importance of clues. It is okay to have misleading clues, that is what makes a great suspense/mystery. You need to have actual clues that help the reader solve it. You don't have to make the clues seem obvious but they need to be there. Read Chapter 5 of Relative Secrets, and Neighbors 2 in Relative Secrets 2, they are there.
Middle names. I thought maybe someone would ask about the middle names of the five graduates, Miley, Oliver, Lily, George and Chris. Miley and Chris are kind of obvious. Miley's middle inital is H and Chris' is J. Think about it. Ring a bell. Hannah and Jason, they needed to get their names somewhere. Oliver's is named after a famous actor. His middle name is Orson, named after George Orson Wells, better known as Orson Wells(he was the title character in Citizen Kane. George's middle name is Ryan. Lily's is Georgia.
Favorite OC to write. It is hands down Tim/Jack. He is an interesting guy to write because he rarely uses the door when entering into a room. How he gets into certain rooms will be revealed in an upcoming chapter. I remember when I first made him come out of the darkness, it was so fun.
Ideas for the story. I think about what will make this story more interesting, also what moves the story along.
Are any of my OC's based on people I know? No, and there will not be any.
