Wow! Woo hoo for being done.
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Fantastic eloquence on silence in here.
Deb, I'd love to beta the finished manuscript.
Off to work, and pack some more.

Yay for being done, Deb. That must feel great.
I'd like to to take a stab at betaing it. It will probably be a couple of weeks before I can get back to you about it.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Astarte, sending to your profile addy.
edit: and to Ginger, too. Woot!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Me too, please Deb. Did you get my paltry comments from yesterday's read?
Also--AmyLiz, whyfor an "unexpected move?" Okay--sorry for the OT-you probably 'splained in Bitches--where I have not ventured in days. Can you point me toward the 'splanatory post(s)?

Bev, insent to you. Just when you had finished the excorcism, here comes the wrap-up and the epilogue...

The status is NOT quo.
Deb, I'd love to beta, but I won't have time until after this last week of school. Would early next week be too late?

Kristin, nope - anytime during the next ten days to two weeks is fine.
Sending.

Morning, all. I want more amazing Silence drabbles now, please.
Something to read while I wait for first-pass pages from the typeset of "Famous Flower" to get here, which my editor says they will, momentarily.

Well okay, Deb, if you insist.
Silence 2
Locker doors crash, loud and sudden, an erratic rhythm to the chorus of voices swelling. Bookbags drop heavy to the ground, and papers hiss as they fall from loose fingers. Shrieks of joy and pain and disbelief mix with barking laughter: another birthday, another F, another busted party last weekend. They move from class to class, room to room, a steady beat of sandaled feet clomping on thinly carpeted floors in constant, discordant music.
Late at night, I am haunted by those echoes in the unnatural silence.
I can hear the tip of my pen whisper across each page, longing.
