Part II of our dear Vicar Celeste, ensconced in the northern reaches of Scotland (this is a response to the Grammar Ghoul’s weekly Mutant 750 prompt). If you haven’t yet met the Vicar, read Haunting Memories first. “Ye cannae get there from here.” The old man stuffed his hands in his pockets and pursed his lips, daring her […]

“Zeus was not having a good day and he made sure everyone knew it.” “Hera! Where in Odin’s name is my crown of laurel! It was here, and now it’s gone!” Hera rolled her eyes. “Right. It walked away, just to piss you off.” Zeus glared. Sometimes he wanted to turn his wife into a […]

I’m supposed to be working…writing pages and pages on my newest novel, the sequel to Aguilla’s Eye. I’ve left my poor main character, Sprout, in a terrible dilemma, and need to get him into something worse! I brought my computer to a workshop with my kids, thinking this hour would be spent typing away as […]

Between Worlds
In this collage, my head is in two worlds–the watery, timeless world of dream & imagination below and the world of Time above. There are people-shaped vacancies like souls coming and going and hands that work “as above so below.”

I meant it to be about creating poised between two worlds, but Peter said it was me as a teacher keeping my head barely above water; like the Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe with “so many students she didn’t know what to do.” And who am I to say he’s wrong?
