Confession time! A senior moment struck me dumb while writing about Neil Gaiman's wonderrful. THE GRAVEYARD BOOK
The names of the two ghostly characters who raised the little boy were Mr. and Mrs. Owens. I lived in Wales for many years the names Owens and Lewis were very common. So instead of thinking Owen, I thought Lewis.
Doesn't make sense, does it? Owen not Lewis. My brain plays tricks now and again. Forget a name? Make up another one.
Read THE GRAVEYARD BOOK. I've read the beginning again. It hooks the reader into the story. Let your imagination roam free through THE GRAVEYARD BOOK.
