The year is 1998. An indie band heads out on tour to promote their new album. Things don’t go as planned.
A new chapter posts each week in real time as I’m writing it. I don’t exactly know how the novel ends yet, we’re on this road together.
You get emails each Wednesday with a LINK in the email so you can click onto Substack to read each chapter in full.
This way I can share a work-in-progress without having my first draft squirreled away for all eternity in your inbox.
My Substack, as always, is free. Thanks for clicking, thanks for reading Ghost Tour.
Oh boy! Oh boy!!
Kingston 76!!!!!!! Can’t wait!
