message 206: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 19137 comments I am in Colorado dealing with my mother, my great-grandmother’s estate, and a writer who has a big ego that wants to finish my grandmother's final manuscript. Then, jumping back in time to World War II where my great-grandmother fell in love with a pilot. How did this story and the unfinished personal manuscript end?

Later today I will be at my grandmother's estate in Vermont where my sister just died. She drowned in the pool, but she was an excellent swimmer. Hmmm...how did that happen? Also, jumping back in time to 1929 where a woman desperate to have a baby goes to a hotel in Vermont that has a natural spring with supposed healing powers.

Sandra (sanlema) | 11260 comments Right now I'm in Macondo, a place as fun as tragic.

I am heading to a small town in the UK. Five years ago a schoolgirl was murdered and I plan to write about it for my final paper.

message 227: by Abby (new)

Abby | 270 comments I'm in a lot of places today lol.

I'm in the present day in Nightshade High School. My arch nemesis, Samantha, has a new look that is to die for.

I'm also in the late 1700s to early 1800s, stranded on a deserted island with my wife and four sons. We currently have two new pets and a treehouse. We're making the best of it.

I've also gone back to Victorian London to hang out with the Shadowhunters. Not only have they given the head of the Institute an impossible task she must accomplish or she'll be replaced, but I have to be trained in weapons and hand-to-hand combat! I am so not ready for this! Can I go back to America now?

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I am back in Gilead, Iowa. I just turned 77 and I am at a picnic with my family. My heart is bothering me and I have not been sleeping well.

My ears were spending time in a Patriot army camp for a short time. I really am not sure exactly where we are. It is 1778 (I was wrong about the date last week) and a battle is about to begin.

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments My ears have been in Regency London getting acquainted with Wrexford and Sloane. The former is a board scientist and the latter is a popular satirical cartoonist. There is a murderer loose in London, but who is he?

My eyes are dragging me back to Vardø, Finnmark. I have to be a witness to what is going to happen. I can’t leave it.


message 243: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11628 comments I'm in Surrey, England sitting in a wet embankment under a tarpaulin as the rain comes down in sheets. I'm hoping it won't be long till they find my brothers body.

Later I'll go back to the Lakeside Courtyard to mingle with the other supernaturals.


message 244: by Marnie (new)

Marnie (marnie19) | 3259 comments I’ve just entered 17th century Amsterdam. I’m newly married and all I know is my sister-in-law is kind of a tool. Also they made me put my bird in the kitchen and I’m worried the fumes will kill her.

Later today, I'll be headed back to Boonsboro, Maryland to check in on those hunky brothers. In the evening, I think I'm going to England, but I'm not sure. All I'm sure of is that there are dragons!
