Last night I crawled into my bed with fresh, clean, crisp sheets and it's like a small revelation every time how great fresh, clean sheets feel. There's just something about them. 😌 What's the amazing feeling you love? It's coming on sweater season, is that your go-to comfort feel?

Throwback Tuesday...because #tbt still works. From the archives discovered when I was transferring my old laptop files to my new laptop. The original was a bit longer and disjointed, but I liked a couple of the lines so I re-edited it to this. Its flow of ideas is still a bit disjointed, and still bears the weight of a slightly melodramatic young adult disappointedly discovering the realities of the world, I can't even really remember what I was talking about. Anyway, I hope you can find a line or two that you like!

The people of the village who play unfortunate host to the Gift have always wanted to keep themselves locked away from the world around them: it's for everyone's best interest. Long, long ago the villagers built a large wall around their village to keep outsiders out. They also built an impressive little basilica (well, tiny by comparison to most) to counter the hell brought by the Gift. But now with the world as modern as it is, no longer is the Gift safe behind just some walls. They need to hide it. It's how "The Eve's End" really gets started ...

Finish the sentence: "You and me and...?"

I love when readers send me pictures of them reading my stories! A huge thanks to Michelle Seymour for this picture of her reading "The Gift" on a South Carolina beach!

It's one thing to face your fears. It's another thing when your fear is waiting for you.
