I was in a "Sybill" sort of mood, today, Deb. Like I said, it's not a genre you can really pin down, but you know it when you see it, yes?
If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

Thank you, all. I like being able to pull that last zinger out at the end and do it well.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
since we're talking about small confined space as metaphor....
Alive in Memory
We're in here and it's dark. I try to see you, hold on, clinging for dear life because there are things behind every corner and I'm frightened, frightened
but
sometimes there's light, we touch, hand to hand, sometimes belly to belly, and in the bits of light that break through there are no hidden places and the eyes in the shadows are shut, cowering back, afraid of the blaze we make
so
it seems that you and I, in this tiny undefined place of no horizons, belong together, holding on, being what we are
wait
make that, what we were.

Ooh, Deb, that's a good one.

I am in love with this phrase and want to have its babies.

It's how I see my own memory.
edit: Chapter 13 begun, first six pages of it done, for all of you people who are breathlessly following the progress of the Attack Novel that Ate Deb's Brain. I'm about 200 words shy of the 60K mark. Should have at least first half to send WIP readers tonight.
JZ, if you're lurking, can you letl me know if you want me to continue sending you bits as they're done? Thankee, ma'am.

Huh...in the taking a minute column...the second mystery project is 1600 words big today. Not all impressive like my spouse but nothing to be embarrassed about.

erika! WOOT!
For heavens sake, don't make the mistake of thinking I write this fast usually. This one's different.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Fabulous, erika!
