I may have to seize the cat.
High pain day in autoimmune land. Lately I've started thinking I should have some sort of jewelry that I wear only on high pain days, to warn people. Then I realized that if it's a high pain day, I probably won't feel like wearing jewelry. Can't stand necklaces on such days, for instance.
Had I the means, I would send Allyson the attractive person of her choice for hair-stroking and soothing whispers.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's extremely cool, Cashmere.
May the pain ease up, Kiba.

Her name was Eleanor Hibbert [link] and she wrote under a number of names. Including Jean Plaidy and Victoria Holt. The Holt novels were 'Gothic Romance' and I devoured them in probably middle school.

I didn't realize there were so many more Holt novels after that stage of my life. I need to read them now.

We were talking about writers like her in Literary a while back. Phyllis Whitney, Dorothy Eden, I forget the others.

Which is really damn weird to me, considering I don't use Instagram.
The Holt novels were 'Gothic Romance'
And I'm going a bit nutty collecting them. I'm not searching them out as obsessively as the "Avon Satanic Gothic" books, but I do keep an eye out for them.
