Managed to write 400 words today for the first time in ages. And worked in two of those week 210 straight from Hell prompts with an idea on using the last still. This is nothing for y’all NaNoWriMo folks or even just regular folks, but it felt good to me! Now just gotta finish, and polish.

Buckets of the stuff. A thirst that cannot be slaked, but sometimes she slumbers. Fingers crossed she nods off so I can finish this without a forensic biologist getting his sternum tugged out.

Congrats!
As for the xiphoid, you could have written a story about CPR. Just sayin’.

Fuck, that’s a good thought. Thank you! Might just have to use it for the non-bloody ending!

Saw someone complain that women characters only ever get written to the Virgin, Mother or Whore archtypes. It’s a fair point about poor characterisation and representation in a lot of media. I am glad to see I avoided that by managing Virgin, Mother, Whore and Lupa.

I agree that just writing the archetypes makes for poor characterization, but personally I think you’ve done a good enough job, at least when it comes to Kizzy, Shannon and the gang, that they exist as more than just the archetypes. Heck, while the Hecate Sisters are the best fit (Shannon is the Maiden, Kizzy is the Mother and Lupa is the Crone) Kate doesn’t even have an archetype she lines up with.

“This is Shannon. She’s our maiden.”
“Just ignore Kate and Lupa. They’ll be rolling around laughing for the next 10 minutes or so.”

Sudden real world stuff taking up free time: “Bend the fuck over JD.”
