"I think I messed up, Rose..."

With a lot of road behind her and a lot of road left to go, Rose Marshall—the Shadow of Sparrow Hill Road—is only starting to understand just how the stakes are capable of getting. The darker story is beginning to show through, and even the dead may not survive it.

Issue 51 of The Edge of Propinquity is live, and with it, the third of the Sparrow Hill Road stories is available. "Tell Laura I Love Her" offers a glimpse into Rose's past, and the way that it can echo forward to destroy her future. But how much future is there, really, for someone who died more than fifty years ago?

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?

I suppose... honestly... I'd be just as happy with the series not being done for a long long long time.

I've read through several of the others, and at times they seem forced--trying to get more story into less words/space/time. So far your Hill stories do not seem like that (which is good)... they just leave me wanting to hear more.

Right now, I'm committed through the end of 2010, at which point, Jennifer and I will discuss whether I'm coming back to do another set of stories in 2011. That means that the current "arc" is going to wrap up in December...although I'm absolutely keeping things open for another season, if it's desired. :)
