I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

What is even happening?

"London Calling" is going to have a look - a bit scary - at the neoNazi skinhead thing in London in the late seventies. The entire book is going to be intense to write.

What a backdrop, deb. That's going to be great.

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

Can my WIP readers look at the last few pages of Cruel Sister, s'il vous plait? So I can finalise and send it off to Nic? Need feedback on the wrapup.

BREE! JP! Back to the Kinkaid Chronicles shortly!

It's actually going to be one of the main themes: a motive for murder.

Because books.

Deb, did you send out the epilogue yet? Because I don't have it.

Shattered

I walked in through darkness, a feeling I couldn't identify. There was the chatter of bottles, a murmur of conversation, the hum of amplifiers.

You hadn't aged. I had, though - I thought, bloody unfair, how can you still be thirty-two when I have to be fifty-one? But there you were, hair still brown, hands still young.

I sat down opposite you. I said your name. My voice was my voice. You met my eye: Polite, well-mannered, charming as always.

You didn't know me. You didn't remember me.

I woke screaming, understanding, hating the true meaning of the word "invisibility".
