A downloadable template

Quickly and easily create your own Apocalypse Keys mysteries. 

A template document laid out in the structure of a mystery, with all sections and headings, and prompts for each individual piece of content. A "recipe" for mysteries.

For example it will prompt the writer with what they need to enter for a Location, for a Person, for questions to ask when the Doomsday clock fills, and every other part of the mystery too.

It isn't a visually stunning document, but is formatted ready for immediate distribution in the style of published mysteries.

For an example of a mystery created using this see my Wolves of Kresimir mystery.
