Ghost Tour (debriefing)
A Questionnaire
Thank you for reading Ghost Tour!
I am very interested in your input! Even if you haven’t finished reading the whole novel, please feel free to answer any-or-all of the questions below. You can message me, email, or add to the comment section. It will be a BIG HELP when I tweak the next draft.
Thanks again!
1 As far as the supernatural elements in the story, please pick one:
a) They should actually be supernatural
b) It should be clear that the supernatural was imagined
c) It should feel uncertain whether the supernatural is real or imagined
2 The narrative often follows Reid but sometimes other characters, is this balance okay? Would you prefer more Reid, or more of the others?
3 If the ghosts are real, should we sometimes see their point of view?
4 Clinton is a stand-in for Kingston. Should it just be Kingston?
5 Were you surprised when it ended? Would it have been less surprising if it were in book form so you knew it was coming?
6 Complete this sentence: Ghost Tour is a combination of _____ meets _____. Put another way, are there other books you can think of that you might find on the same shelf?
7 Any other comments or observations welcome, including if there’s anything in particular that was confusing, or that you wish was better explained or developed.
COMING NEXT WEEK:
Something New!

Hi Adam!
1: c
2: I like digging in with Reid and the balance felt right to me
3: yeah!
4: Clinton is so much more remote and disconnected feeling in NY (in my imagination) than Kingston — I think it should be Clinton
5 I wasn’t surprised. It ended around when it felt like it was about to.
Hi Adam, I have just finished reading this as I am travelling home from being on tour and I loved it!

1. c).
2. I like seeing the story from the points of view of the other characters.
4. Clinton!
