Sunday Check In - 2025
I am in the Arctic and half frozen to death as we try to find survivors of the fated Franklin expedition. Will this cold and starvation never end? My teeth are starting to get loose. I think I might have scurvy.
I am in Panama while they are building the canal. My husband wants me to stay inside during the rainy season (about six months) because he’s worried I’ll get malaria. I’m going to have to sneak out.
I'm in Japan right now. I'm a fox and I'm looking for the man who killed my daughter.I'm also in Scotland mourning the death of my best friend. There are some unanswered questions, I hope I can get to the bottom of it.
I'm in Tennessee and I'm sure I can create a new church, The Church Without Jesus. It is not going well.
I just crossed the border into Mexico with my mom. The ghost of my grandma is in the back seat, and we plan to bury her body in Mexico when we get to her house. I think. I'm not totally sure what's going on. My mom sees auras and I see spirits. And grandma's really bossy.
I am in Iceland to meet with a true crime podcaster who is trying to solve a cold case involving my grandfather.In a little while I am heading back to 1950s Philadelphia and Washington, DC where I am both a teenage girl trying to get into college and a young college student at Howard University. In both storylines I have recently met a young man that I am interested in, but might not be the best fit for me even though the interest is returned.
I'm in Johannesburg in 1970. Someone just threw a rock through the window of the room where we're having Christmas dinner!
I'm once again captaining my pirate ship searching for a kidnapped girl.
I just got to Scotland to visit my Grandpa. Wild animals seem to like him as much as me…woohoo
I'm in a fictional island location around the Mediterranean. We have a house full of magical children. A new child just joined us and he is a Yeti named David.I'm also in Ireland where I just met my cousin. I am to learn how to use my powers and fight the evil sorcerer who killed my ancestor.
I am meeting my new fiancé's family for the first time. We are staying on his family's estate in a very remote location. I have the weird sense of having been here before. I am also still in Iceland filming a podcast about my grandmother's murder and now a new podcast about a young woman who has gone missing from my grandfather's farm 40 years later. Not sure how I ended up in the middle of everything since I was just supposed to be here to do an interview with the podcaster. Somehow, I've gotten very involved in the new missing woman case.
I'm (a cat) in Bradford with my human Callum, a Sfinx cat called Pru and Green Snake, going to the Green Wolf Café looking for werewolf called Yasmine.
I'm at sea somewhere looking for treasure. My father is hot in pursuit. I'd rather be a pirate than go to a girl's school for delicate ladies. I'm not interested in learning how to faint. However, it might be useful for a pirate to learn how to feint.I'm also in Ireland where I'm learning my witchy ways.
I'm in Australia where my dogs are the scourge of the neighborhood. How can they be so sweet and lovable one minute and all teeth and growling the next?I will also be in Ireland later today where I'd rather be in the library than outside playing with other children. I think the sinking of the Titanic is going to change my life utterly.
I'm in Colorado where my daughter has just killed my son and been arrested. I'm not sure how to support one child without dishonoring the other.
My eyes are riding a dragon in a faraway kingdom and my ears are at a resort in Northern California. The soon to be groom was just found floating dead in the pool.
I'm in ancient Eygypt. I'm at the bedside of my dying father and he's just confirmed that I will be Queen after he's gone. Hmm, I'll probably have to marry my annoying little brother to hold the kingdome together.
I'm in Wembley where I've found a list of books to read. I don't read, and I'm a librarian. If I want to do my job and give recommendations, I should read some books and this might be the place to start.Later today, I'll be headed to the bayou. I want some respite, but I think I might be asking for too much.
I'm in Barbados. I've been lent to the Masters brother and I'm very nervous about he might want from me.
I am in a cave that feels like purgatory where I have to constantly listen to all the people who are begging for more time.
I am at an academy in the mountains of some unnamed European country learning about The Grand Jeu- whatever that means.Also I’m in England at a book conference where lo and behold someone died.
I'm observing the filming of the book my late husband wrote and watching an extremely talented teenager who is the star of the show. It was suggested that she smoke 80 cigarettes per day to keep her weight down!!!!!
I am on a road trip to Atlantic City. Unfortunately my mom and ex husband decided to tag along. My ears are at a book conference in England where, shockers, a murder has taken place.
I'm in France and retelling my story about serving in the Civil War in Massachusetts centuries ago. Yes, I'm almost 200 years old.I'll also be back in Ireland later today, fighting evil with my cousins and find love at the same time.
I am in San Francisco 1906 and there has just been a huge earthquake.
I'm back in Bingtown! I'm trying to convince an offended dragon to help me find the woman I love.
I’m an ex ranger in NYC working in high finance. My coworker/ situationship was found dead in our office and I’m the chief suspect.
I'm in Scotland where we are trying to introduce wolves back in to the ecosystem to bring it back into balance. There is some nasty resistance. I'm also in Ireland, where I've fallen in love with a woman I've known most of my life. She seems to the focal point of an evil sorcerer. He thinks he can harm me by harming her.
The police just found a body buried in my neighbor's back yard and somehow the elderly busybody ended up staying at my house.
I'm in the middle of a war on top of a mainmast in the middle of the ocean. I'm hiding the fact that I'm female, and while I'm not scared of dying, I'm worried about the bosun getting angry with me enough to flog me because if that happens, my secret is out!
I have been on a treasure hunt throughout the Middle East.I am about to visit Cocoa Beach in the 40s.
I'm in Dorset, UK. Doing some sea swimming right now. It takes my mind off the ghostly images that keep appearing in the photographs I take.
I am in a locked ward and I am seeing/hearing things that don't seem to really be there. I am definitely not a reliable narrator. I am also an elderly gentleman working in a charity shop in England. I keep all the items that people treasured before they passed away and would normally be disposed of when no-one else wants them. I am 90 years old and never been kissed.
I am in a quaint English village where I just found a fortune teller dead in my solarium.My ears are in Washington DC where my search and rescue dog is helping me locate victims of a bombing.
I'm in Sinful, Louisiana, investigating theft of vehicles. I'm supposed to keep my nose clean, but what my boyfriend, the sheriff, does know won't hurt him.I'm also in Shrewsbury where we are discussing the merit of accepting children as apostolates as opposed to adults. The discussion put me to sleep last night.
Oh, Sinful... 😆 I haven't visited there in a while. I need to go back.
I just watched the doctor and social worker forcibly remove one of my friends from our group home by using a hypodermic injection to knock her out.
I'm a midwife testifying that a judge was guilty of rape.

I am in a mountain village in China picking tea with my familyMy ears are in London. I’m hanging with my 30 something besties playing bar trivia.
I'm picking tea with Marnie and hoping for a different future than the one that's been planned for me.
I'm in New York and my sister has been murdered presumably by a vampire. I'm also in a fantasy world where the king has learned that there is a pretender to the throne. I have a funny feeling he's going to make me resolve the problem.
You know what we didn't do yesterday????I'm in Elan where someone has kidnapped my son and killed the woman who tended him. I'm terrified.
I'm also in Ireland where we are planning to "end" that evil sorcerer. We've tried twice before and failed. Maybe three times is a charm. It's got to be, becuase it's either him or us.
I'm in Elan with Janice! It really is a scary place but the inhabitants have great SOHs.
On Sunday I was reintroducing wolves into the woods in Scotland. The sheep farmers were not happy with me.
I'm still in Elan with Janice. Pretty sure my Dad is trying to kill me, but I'm still here. I think I'm becoming one of the guys :-)
I’m at the Regency Grand in New York. I just found out a trinket from my Grandmother is worth a fortune.
I am in a small town where I am going through a divorce and have just started dating again.I am also with RBG as she goes through her life.
