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.

I recently found your Sparrow Hill Road stories and read them all until 3 in the morning. You capture the cadence of the open road and Americana myths at the best.

I would love to see Rose interact with other hitcher ghosts like the infamous Resurrection Mary or Pele.

Or Rose finding herself on a dark desert highway with the smell of colitas in the air.
