I thought your entry in Midnight Road was eerie and great.
Loved how Lydia could see something was going wrong but not process it.
Thanks for the reminder about ToD. I keep forgetting to keep track of it.
Thanks, Flood.
Did you seriously remember the character's name? You're good!
So yeah, ToD and don't forget to check out the WBA, if not for the contest, then to join.
I loved your story, Melly. :) Those people sounded like they were high on something . . . or perhaps under some spell.
Thanks Deborah.
My husband thought she was a dog (?) and your take on it is definitely more along what I had in mind. It's the last time I let him read anything!
(Until next time, that is ;)
I'm planning on taking part in at least two of these carnivals. An ambitious idea for someone who has yet to get started on either of these projects.
Kewl!
Aren't these just a whole lot of fun?!
I just read your entry in Clarity of night. Nice job I enjoyed it once i 'got it'.

rut roh raggy,,,,, I was guilty of the dog mistake too the first time i read it,,,,,but but but,,,,,before you put me in the dog house with him,and stop me from reading more Consider this. It was Kash(my dog) that gave me a "hey stupid i have paws and cant OPEN windows!" look that helped clue me in before i read it the second time. That punishment may be right just for me(and your hubby) but certainly isnt fair to the dog.
INKcogKNEEdough, alas, as many writers do, I too need someone to read my stuff. My "threat" (if it is indeed taken as such) is utterly toothless!
And thanks :)
