"Deliver me from evil, and deliver me from the arms of Bobby Cross..."

You all remember sweet little Rosie Marshall, the girl who crashed and burned on Sparrow Hill Road, don't you? Well, Rose's story is done now, but that doesn't mean that there aren't pieces missing.

I'm in the process of taking the twelve stories written during 2010 and turning them into a single episodic narrative. This is basically the "novel length" Sparrow Hill, and like any good expansion, it needs a little bonus content. So.

I need one more story to tell; one more episode or incident from Rose's world. It can be a flashback, but I should be able to fit it somewhere in the middle of the overall narrative—so before "Faithfully" and "Thunder Road," but somewhere after "Last Dance With Mary Jane."

What do you want to see? I can't promise to take your request in specific, but if you tell me where you think the holes are, there's a chance I can fill the one that's most important to you.

What Tereshkova said about the blessing and the queen of the dead and her relationship with the queen of the routewitches.

Has Rose ever found herself at her own, personal crossroads and run into the shadows there on her own terms.

As a new ghost, learning to navigate, how did she get to know the roads, how to keep from slipping all the way into the Midnight, how to pull herself out again. That sort of stuff.

Also, I'm kind of fascinated with routewitches in general. How do they find out what they are? Why do they do what they do. What does their training look like. (I realize this might be a tad too much of a narative tangent, but if you're inclined to throw some of that particular lore into a story, I'd personally be delighted). :-)
Thanks for the suggestions!

More on the routewitches is not forthcoming at this time.
