Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

That definitely helps. Thanks, Am-Chau!

If I only had a brain...

Susan, a beech would be perfect. They're really trashy trees -- there are spiky beech hulls everywhere. Another good option would be a willow -- You could walk in under the leaves of a willow and be well-hidden, but you'd definitely get up with twigs and leaves.

Always Anti-fascist!

Thanks, everyone. Tep, I wish I had a good writer's group, too. We would have fun in class, but they would probably need to seperate us, sometimes.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I wish I had both of you in my writers group. We'd terrify the neighbourhood.

They'd think we were a coven. And they'd kind of be right.

We don't need no stinkin' henna tattoos or spice racks!

Well, they're not mandatory...and I never got real excited about bundt cakes, empowering or not.

Deb, you will be StarFairy MoonDancer.

Erika, you will be MoonBeam TwinkleHoney.

I will be Flaming Bringer of Death.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Bwah! That's funny, Steph.

Erika, I had to skim, so I didn't read, but I marked, and will read when I get on my own computer with my own cable access and time. I can't wait.
