Quote: What do you mean, "now"?Well, true. But you bring it on yourself. Quote: Clean shirts and some groceries would be more practical. And a new garderer, since mine is apparently in prison now.Would that I could in a practical way. And, what did he/she do to end up there? I just did some work in the garden, there was/is a stubborn thorny asparagus fern which was really growing wild everywhere and has multiple root stocks. As I was working to get rid of it all I actually blamed spiffy out loud. Quote: At this stage I need to bring a lot of strands together and the "short chapter focussed on one person" format is a bit of a limitation. So we've had several chapters where focus characters either report on or see what is happening in the other plotlines. I'm afraid it is inevitable as we get towards a resolution.It's a good way of keeping things moving without having to go into the detail. Quote: Trying to find fresh ways of doing that (with Laurie and Beth's visions and Zania's cosmic senses and so on) is a bit of a challenge. So I was happy to have a character at hand who could legitimately see some borders and the events there.Yes, it was quite different but worked. Quote: Doubtless Lisa would claim she was ending an old life. Like her cat, Lisa can be an old softie. Honestly.I wouldn't refer to the cat that way. Quote: Nope. Not even Wilbur managed that.Ah well. Quote: We're still light on ethnic minorities from non-Western countries.Quote: Like Zania ever bothered to answer my phone.Good help is hard to find? Quote: You'd think it would work that way.The author or his editor perhaps. Quote: Well that narrows down the field. Quote: Indeed.Melissa Troia Enthralless Lisa Cobra Sorceress Hagatha Darkness Valeria Laurie Layton Ziles Grace Kelly Shazana Pel Yuki Cleone Swanmay Uhuna Citizen Z It strikes me that the daughter of a Sea-Monkey-Human combination would possibly be rather exotic or have some kind of powers. Quote: Quote: Quote: Quote: And wait - Mac? It's not Regret is it?Quote: Quote: Interesting guess.Quote: Quote: She was the freshest "bedraggled girl that Mac encountered" in my mind. Quote: So she was. | |||||||
