"The Atlantic Highway isn't a safe place for the dead..."

Rose Marshall has come a long, long way since she died in Buckley Township, Michigan, and now, with the stakes getting higher every time she turns around, she's finally doing what she's needed to do for a while. She's finally looking for help. Of course, on the ghostroads, even the help can harm you...

Issue 52 of The Edge of Propinquity is live, and with it, the fourth of the Sparrow Hill Road stories is available. "Building a Mystery" takes us deep into the ghostroads, and all the way along the back of the Old Atlantic Highway, where the routewitches may hold the key to Rose's past—and to her future. All she has to do is survive...and for the dead, that can prove to be surprisingly hard.

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?

Are these going to be published as dead tree versions at some point? If not, do you have any problem with me printing them off for my own personal use only? I would really like to read them as a book (which I could then take to bed).

I'm hopeful that we may be able to do something like that, once the story is done (at the end of the year). In the meanwhile, I don't mind your doing print-outs.
