Shards of Time (NR 7) snippets

"The evening meal was simple but satisfying. Spring greens and vinegar, pan fried trout with wild sage and thyme, a casserole of winter vegetables from the root cellar, and jam tarts."

I love writing food!


"Thero traced another intricate series of patterns on the air, trying the summoning out spell again, but with the same result. Something was wrong. If this was a curse, then the ritual should be working. Either it was something else, or he wasn’t performing it correctly. The latter hardly seemed possible; Nysander had drilled him in the steps and Thero had a perfectly infallible memory."

I love writing arrogant Thero, too!
