So because I’m feeling both lazy and creative (quite the combination, eh?), here’s a quote from the novella-in-progress.  Remember, Vivian’s story takes place before Pistils (don’t worry, there are no spoilers here).

I had a fleeting last-minute wish that I’d been able to call and share the weird twist of events with Parker, but she was studying for her last few exams, and I hadn’t wanted to bother her. Confidence, though. Vivian, you have confidence in spades, I could almost hear her telling me. Confidence that had too often been faked, to get me through situations when I was really scared shitless.

I was rapidly approaching scared shitless.

Happy Monday all!!!
