Has there already been a summer topic?

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Whispering. Or, possibly, more broadly: sighs and/or whispers.

I'm getting the pig!

Did we already do 'Family'?

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Okay, after both wandering away from the computer and then forgetting we needed a topic, I'm back!

Challenge #57, the beloved Deliberately Bad Writing, is now closed. And that was some BAD writing, y'all. Good job!

Challenge #58 is shadow, and I urge you to consider the topic keeping in mind Jung's description of the shadow self.

Or not. It could just be a sunny day. (Bonus points to anyone who drabbles Thales of Miletus. Or even knows who he is -- without googling!)

Honey, I'm a Nero Wolfe fan. Of course I know who Thales of Miletus is. Mister Math Guy!

And how he relates to this week's topic?

Huh. No, there you've got me. Unless you're thinking about his astronomy stuff?

Thales of Miletus is believed to have measured the height of the pyramids (well, one pyramid at a time) by measuring its shadow at the moment when his *own* shadow was his exact height.

Keen, huh?

OK, that really is cool.

I am not going to be the first off the draw on the new challenge today, though, because I've just written close to two thousand words on Cruel Sister and I need both a breakfast break and a beta read.

Bev? Anyone? Usual beta stuff, feedback, does it flow, is it suspenseful, does it ring true?
