My facination with Mr. Jack

So I have decided to finally start writing about something I told myself I wouldn’t, due to the fact that almost every piece of fiction, or movie made has butchered (pardon the corny joke) it, of course its the story of Jack the Ripper.
I don’t know why I became so interested in the Ripper case, I think most of it is because of the fact that “Jack” was never found, never brought to justice, where did he go? Why did he stop? Who? What? How? The questions are probably endless. Mr. Ripper is one of the reasons why I have always wanted to go to England, and on that subject, doesn’t England seem like one of the darkest places ever? the most Gothic? Think about it:
~ The Tower of London
~ Jack the Ripper
~ Sweeney Todd
~ Coleridge
~ Walpole
I could go on, but I digress
Back to Jack the Ripper, why Jack? why not Burt? or Larry? Can you imagine? Larry the Ripper? (the serial killing Joe the Plumber lol)
I was always scared to write some Ripper-fic because of a fear of killing (pun again, sorry!) the myth, I hate it when writers ruin a perfectly true-ish, and perfectly scary story (I’m looking at YOU Emily Rose). But fear be damned, I’m going to take the plunge.

Stay tuned for some sort of short Ripper-fic coming to a Redbubble near you! (No promises it will be good, but I can guarantee that it will shock you)
