Raine's Secret Garden

Undone

I’ve made my escape, at last–AT LAST!!
Having been chained to the walls of that cave for so long, I’d forgotten the truth. The rumors among the rest of the prisoners insisted there really was such a thing as “light” beyond the darkness. But it had been so very long…

It took forever, I think, to escape, scraping at the raw materials of the wall with little more than a quill, then dragging my weary body through the muck and mire until the water ran clear. Up the jagged stones, forcing my bleeding fingers to climb higher and higher still, to hold on, until…until…

LIGHT!!

‘Tis true! I can see it, brilliant and beautiful, beckoning me to leave the darkness and enter a world of color and air and life!
But wait–there are stirrings from below. One of the guardians has latched onto my dangling leg and is pulling me back. He’s murmuring something about edits, about having only finished the first round, and how I must return to the cave, embrace the shadows again.
Noooooo!

HELP ME!! If there’s anyone out, lend a hand, a rope, a prayer, for God’s sake!

Rule of Three?

People say celebrities die in threes.
I don’t know if it’s true. But I know these three have left me saddened and, in MJ’s case, positively stunned.
RIP Ed, Farrah, and Mike. And thanks for a lot of wonderful memories.

God bless the double standard, lol.

I’m finally sticking my head out of the editing cave for a bit, and blogging at the CHICAS site today.
And I’m not wearing a shirt. :lol:

P.S.~~
Ann, I DO have smilies. You just have to type in the code. :)

A LITTLE NEWS

I haven’t exactly been at my best lately, so I figure it’s about time for a bit of good news.

Okay, it’s wayyy PAST time for a bit of good news, lol.
Little drum roll, please?

I seem to have sold another e-book to Samhain.
It’s been a while, so this is a good thing. :whistle:

The working title for the book is “The Fallen”. It’s a full-length novel consisting of two novellas about Incubii, fallen angels who sacrificed their place in Paradise to feed on the desire of mortal lovers.
The scheduled release date is in October.

It’s been a while, so this is a good thing. :whistle:

SIGNS

I’ve always had a thing for amusing signs, whether intentionally funny or not.
Fortunately, with the internet they’re not hard to find. :lol:
