You knew it was coming. I can’t seem to write a story without pirates. <><><><><><><><><> “Well, well, well, you have fallen into a nice nest, haven’t you?” The familiar booming voice echoed through the entire house, and Drew grinned. “It’s a gilded cage,” he said, coming down the stairs. “I’m a golden bird.” “Indeed you …

(advent) Only a little late!
I’m sorry, but I finally, FINALLY got the breakthrough I needed! You guys… I KNOW HOW THE STORY ENDS! Tomorrow, more writing! <><><><><><><><> “Am I late?” Lai rushed into the kitchen, the door banging behind her. “I’m so sorry!” she said breathlessly. “I had a conference call run long!” “You’re fine,” Molly said, setting another …
(advent) December 6 – and I’m finally decorating!
Yeah, I know, I normally decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving. It’s been one of those years. My cards aren’t done yet either. That’s tomorrow, I think. <><><><><><><><><> Bang! The slamming of the front door jolted Drew from sleep. He lay there a moment longer, dazed, wondering what he’d heard. Then heavy footsteps clomped across the …
(advent) Sorry for the delay!
Bad Crohn’s evening. 🙁 Sorry, guys. <><><><> “So wait a minute,” Sue Elder said, looking over at Molly. All three of the Terrible Trio had descended on the tea shop that afternoon, wanting to hear the story for themselves.

(advent) December 4 – The point where you guys will either love this – or hate it.
Today’s entry is a worrying one for me. Why? Because I’m changing the story. Well, not the story, per se. But the feel of the story. And I worry that you guys, the ones who adored the first one, won’t like it. Note that doesn’t mean that I haven’t written it. I have. And I’m …
(advent) December 3 – Things are getting interesting!
And yes, that IS all I’ll say. <><><><><> “Anybody got a cup of tea for a lonely, parched soul?” Schrodinger’s ears perked up as the sound of Lai Zhao’s voice floated through CrossWinds Books. The early evening had been quiet – it was still early enough in the season that folks were going home rather …
(advent) – December 2nd, a little late in the day
I don’t even have my Christmas tree up. But I went ghost-hunting last night and house-hunting today, and so I’m a little behind. Story of my life. But! Here we go! Day 2! <><><><><><><> “Saint Michael’s Church, Father Christopher speaking.” The priest’s deep voice rumbled through the speaker, easily heard even over the occasional static, …
(advent) Saturday, December 1 – a new Schrodinger/Molly story!
Yes, I know, it’s after 2 pm, but it’s still the 1st! I woke up with a lovely gluten hangover, and had to go right out and go to my nutritionist’s appointment. I came home and crashed again, but I have too much to do today to sleep all day (with the snow falling, it’s …
