^That is gorgeous, Blab! :D

Rewritten the evacuation bit tonight, as it felt off to me. Now, there's simply an ominous warning of worse to come at the end of that chapter.

Uhm… in a way, I guess. ;) Rather brutally, actually, though we don't see the murder itself. (Don't particularly want an NC-17 rating on this book!)

I submitted my book Snowbound so now to see what happens next. No idea what I'll do if it gets rejected as that would super suck.

Good luck, no suck. Is this a Romance novel?

Snowbound is now called Pride & Pancakes, and will be sent off to The Powers That Be soon. So prayers, or fingers crossed, or pixie dust, or blood sacrifices please.

Two chapters, and now someone else is dead. Someone vital, this time, not a minor character.

A main character has also been wounded severely, and is carrying on regardless. Not Fraya, this time.
