Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Go Deb!
Susan, what about the realisation that, if she marries Jack, they'll need to go elsewhere because of the class structure of the time being what it was? Literally, distance from James and Lucy, from familiar things, from the England she came to miss while she was with the Army, as a motivation. But she can also have the realisation that, as it is, she has no place to call home.
That could work....

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
That could work....
Yep. And, again, it serves an illuminating function, as well - do it right and we, the readers, get to see Anna suddenly grow up even further by way of a single well-drawn epiphany. It's a very adult moment to realise you have no real home.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Oh, for goodness sake, go go go go, Still Life! I love that book with an unholy passion, and it needs to be in print SO BAD. Ooh! Can we help you think up a suitable pseud? Carilla Katherine McHartshade? Susannah DeVaronna? Brigihde Silvermantle?
Um?

The first name of the pseudonym must be Letitia. I adore that name. Letitia Stonebridge or something overwhelmingly Brit.

Because books.
Go, Deb! Does that mean there's a possibility editor guy might want pb rights to the series, too? 'Cuz that would be cool beans.
And is one of the short-shorts you're waiting to hear about the one for Arabella?
Also, no new challenge today? I had another holiday hell one, but I didn't do it because I thought it would be too late... Maybe I'll squeak it in.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
AmyLiz, go ahead and post the Holiday Hell one, as I'm scrambling around trying to come up with a topic for this week.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Yay, Deb!
