The Pledge: Back Slidin’ on Day Two

Well, I woke up today with a small health crisis. Not a big deal, but big enough that it couldn’t wait until I get home, so I spent the morning searching for a clinic where I could be seen and remembering why, although I adore being far away from home on an island, there’s a lot to be said for being close to everything familiar. Anyhow, I found a lovely doctor who fixed me up, but wow today was a real pledge killer.

Still, it was another beautiful day in Paradise and I had a great walk on the beach, followed by a nap. All of that left me with less writing time than I would have liked, but I managed to fill the snippets with five good pages in which I was surprised by a ten-year-old girl, a cat named Patches and a hidden key. I also turned a character’s seedy apartment into a run down but cute little arts and crafts cottage. Going into those five pages, I had no idea any of that would occur. Writing fction never fails to amaze me, and all I can say is I hope tomorrow’s surprises are only of the fictional variety!
