A Name


My brain feels a little like it lost a tug of war with a pack of wolves today. But a commitment is a commitment, so here I sit in front of the blank screen. I having been thinking quite a bit about my main character. I knew she was homeless. I just didn't know how she got there. Or how redemption comes to her. Or even her name. Until now, she has been a character in the shadows. Lurking behind other ideas, patiently waiting her turn. Last night as I lay in bed making sure every shadow in the room was something I count account for in my world, an act only she count identify with, she wispered her name to me. It's Lilith, and she's beautiful.
