Good morning! Today, author Jessica Kong tells us about her story idea process for A LOST KITTEN, her latest novel. Enjoy!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dreams of Beaches and What If Decisions
How did you come up with the idea for “A Lost Kitten”?
If you are an author, I am sure you have been asked this
question multiple times. Well, not about
“A Lost Kitten”, but about your own story.
If you are a reader, you must have thought ‘where do authors come up
with this stuff?’
Well, for me it all started with a scene from a black and
white romance movie that I once saw. It
was a couple laying on the beach in an intimate embrace as the incoming waves
washed over them. That scene sparked a
dream so real that it kept me in its clutches for months. Normally, I read horrors and paranormals as
well as watch them on TV. At the time I
had this dream, I had become a new mother of triplets. It goes without being said that I needed time
to relax and regain my sanity. I did
this by replaying in my mind my favorite books and movies. Even though these stories were great, there
was always something I wished the characters had done differently.
This led me to ask the ‘what if’ question. What if the man on the beach was a secret
agent and the woman he held in his arms was an alien from another world that he
was protecting from his government? What
if this alien humanoid evolved from felines?
My mind began showing me a storyline heading in a different direction
than the movie’s. I found it interesting
and fun, so I started to write it down.
My new ‘escape from a chaotic world’ was created.
As I wrote about this blossoming romance, the couple became
more real to me. Their story continued
to unravel in my head. It began to
include family members, best friends, traveling into space, even a timeline. I wrote storyline after storyline from that
one beach scene, eventually writing “A Lost Kitten”, a paranormal romance with
science fiction elements entailing the firstborn son of that spy and alien
feline. And as we all know, felines can
have litters of multiple kittens.
So to sum it up, storylines are a writer’s daydreams and
fantasies written on paper. At least,
when it comes to me it is.

A Lost Kitten
Jasira Eversole is drawn to the powerfully built outlander sitting at the
king’s table. Unable to resist the need to see him again, she enters the
warrior’s room while he sleeps. John’s rugged good looks and chiseled body
compel Jasira to reach out and touch him. Being of the mist, Jasira knows she
will not be able to feel John, but she cannot resist his pull. The richness of
John’s hair, the firmness of his muscles, and the clean scent of his skin all
take Jasira off guard. She swiftly realizes John is her intended mate. Now,
Jasira must somehow convince the young warrior that they are two
halves of one soul without chasing him off Surreal, leaving her to a lonely
existence as mist.
Excerpt
Excerpt
John was drifting off to sleep when he
felt someone press their lips to his.
His heart leapt in his chest, waking him. He did not wait to respond. He instantly showed his talented Jasira how a
McCall kissed.
He had longed for this kiss since the
last time. Her kiss was how he
remembered. Warm. Hungry.
Arousing. John growled. He lured her tongue into his mouth where he
could savor it. Her taste made his trip
to Surreal worth it.
John felt Jasira’s fingers travel down
his chest, abdomen, to his throbbing root.
His head fell back, over the tub on a loud groan. “Jasira.”
He adjusted his hips, giving her better access to his enflamed body.
His racing heart banged harder against
his ribs. Jasira gripped him
firmly. John felt the world tilt on its
axis. He clung to the sides of the iron
tub. He closed his eyes tighter and
enjoyed her touch.
“I want you, Jasira,” John huskily
admitted. His eyes opened. Through
glowing eyes, he saw the ceiling. He glanced
around. The kitchen was empty.

Welcome Jessica! Thanks for sharing your story idea process with us today. A LOST KITTEN sounds like a great read. I enjoyed the excerpt a lot (but wish it was a tad longer, lol).
Hi, Jessica and Lynda,
Very interesting! What's the old saying? The media is the message. If we see a vivid scene, it can start a whole process for those of us who write.
The scene described reminds me of the famous love scene in the film version of the war movie "From Here to Eternity." It was talked about for many years.
