The physical and action details in the preview are appealing. Is it a bad thing that Melinda got the journal? I like the moment when Ran leans against Papa and feels Papa's heartbeat.

I can't say because it spoils the end of the previous book. I'm glad you liked the preview. It was fun to write but the story definitely didn't go where I thought it would.

Lately, I've been writing verse; and sometimes it goes where I do not expect. I've heard characters and plots can escape the writer's plans as well.

They do! Ran doesn't obey outlines. He just does whatever he wants. But he's not the only character who ignores me. I'm glad you're writing again. You always had such a way with words.

Thank you! (Which shows no way with words, though I'll keep trying.)
