Musing
Sometimes in between posts I have spare things that make little side notes. This one was big enough I decided to share. I subscribe to a school of thought when it comes to the craft of writing. I believe that … Continue reading
Eclipse Epilogue
But we’re not quite done. Much like words, Otis uses Prologues and Epilogues incorrectly. Epilogues are supposed to bring closure if they’re provided and this one does nothing of the sort. This one is told from Jacob’s point of view. … Continue reading
