Amy Fletcher, a single parent who worked as a network technician in an IT company worked 8 to 5, six days a week supporting her six year old son Vince.
Although Amy held a regular job, after hours were committed to writing novels, that was right after completing household chores and putting her son to bed.
Amy had loads of manuscripts which were all sitting on the shelves on queue for editing. She never seemed to have time to polish them up.
One Saturday morning during breakfast, she pulled out the newspaper she had bought the previous day from her handbag and spread it out on the table next to her coffee mug.
Amy's jaw dropped sighting the headlines on the daily newspaper, of a particular article that caught her attention.
So shocked she spilled some of the contents of her coffee on the table while trying to read but she reacted swiftly to save the remaining.
She couldn't believe her eyes, as the article was similar to the chapter she was currently drafting.
Even though the characters and the conflict were different, the events settings were quite similar.
Amy felt like the novel she was working on was manifesting in the real world; the story even though fictitious was becoming real.
Was it coincidental or something supernatural was happening?
She decided to let the story rest while deciding on what to do next.
