Sitting with a vodka bottle, Sonja looked at all the musical paraphernalia. She let out a wet hiccup and took another slug of booze.
“Ah Jorgie, why’d you have to go and get yourself dead?”
That bus came outta nowhere Sonja!
“Now I’m even hearing your voice! I never was good with the booze.”
No, you never were, but you’re one fine singer.
Sonja’s watery eyes grew large as she saw Jorge shimmer in front of her.
“Jorgie?”
It’s me Sonja, how about we make some music?
Six months later the #1 song on the charts…….
“Ghosts of Love’ by Sonya

However she got her inspiration – a ghost or a drink-fuelled hallucination – it seems to have worked for her! Great story.

Dear Jackie,
Now that’s one way to make beautiful music together. Makes me think of the movie “Ghost” to some degree. Nicely imagined and well written.
Shalom,

Such a great story – from loss to survival and a successful future. I loved Sonja’s voice with the line, ‘why’d you have to go and get yourself dead?’
