Good girls go to heaven...

Ever wondered what really happened to Rose Marshall, the pretty little dead girl who started it all? Well, you can finally find out...starting today.

Issue 49 of The Edge of Propinquity is live, and with it, the first of the Sparrow Hill Road stories is available. "Good Girls Go to Heaven" introduces you to Rose Marshall and the ecology of the ghostroads, where death is not forever; it's not even for tonight.

There are a lot of stories trapped and tangled in the twilight. This is only one of them. But it's the one I have to tell.

Give a girl a ride?

Yup. This is what I have been waiting 3 years to read. Thank You.

One question

"My story started at a desert crossroads, and at a hairpin curve at the top of Sparrow Hill Road in Buckley Township, Michigan. "

Did you mean desert, or deserted?

I mean desert. Rose is from Michigan, and died on the top of Sparrow Hill Road; the crossroads comes into things a little later, and is located in the middle of Death Valley.

I had that same question, actually. I'm intrigued.
