Family Secrets

Image
October 2016 I've had house guests for a day... my sister and one of our cousins. (There were 54 of us cousins originally.) We spent an afternoon reminiscing about family and catching up with family news when something occurred to us that we had never considered before. We have had a quadruple murder most assuredly ordered by The Mob; we have had possible incest; we have had a member of the family who doesn't look at all like her siblings, but looks a lot like the hired man; we have cousins who disappeared but were found again 50 years later; we have cousins who were given up for adoption but have popped back up on the family tree; we have a haunted house; we have had paranormal events; and we have dearly departed members who have made appearances to the living! The something that occurred to us was that we may have enough material to write a mini-series with many, many episodes... in essence, a Family Saga of sorts! But would it sell?
