Sunday Check In - 2025
I’m in Seattle safeguarding a 12 year old girl and dodging this creepy gal I met on a train who wants to kill me. My ears are in Canada where I’m trying to prevent a terrorist group from messing with the water supply.
I am reliving growing up Cree in northern Alberta
I'm stranded on a deserted island in the St Lawrence Seaway and now I discover I'm pregnant. What's to become of us?
I recently saw someone that I thought was dead and I'm investigating what happened to her. I'm also in a fantasy town where I just opened up a coffee shop.
Missed this again. I was (and still am) with my pod in the ocean. Yesterday was a bad day, my mum got killed trying to lure a shark away from me. Life is cruel here, but isn't that true everywhere?
I am in Sandhamn, Sweden on an island not far from Sockholm, ready to help solve a crime that has still to be committed. Carsten, a venture capitalist, with Russian connections has just completed building a gigantic house on the shore. Many of the locals consider this to be an eyesore and are not happy with the development.
I have lived a quiet, but full life on my farm in Indiana and am now realizing that I may have developed cancer from when I worked at a clock factory in Ottawa, Illinois as a young woman and was exposed to radium.
I'm in Cypress at the deathbed of my father. Life is so unfair.
I am in post-WWII Paris where I am investigating a murder. I was at a party at Julia Child's house and a woman was murdered there when she was leaving party. I am also attending a parent's weekend at a small private school in Northern California. We had a dinner and none of the kids from our group showed up. Where did they all go?
I'm on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland. We just discovered a sunken plan in the lock. The pilot, still strapped in his seat looks like he was murdered. I'm also it Tear. I was hidden away as an infant and raised in secret. Now that I'm 19, it's time for me to take the throne. It's a miracle I survived the trip to Tear. My mother's guards think it will be a miracle if I survive a week.
I am beneath the sea trying to talk a sea god into saving my village from bad storms.
I am in Vermont. Something is strange. People buying toy trains are having odd accidents? Why am I hearing train whistles?
Almost forgot again! I'm back in Elan. It's fast becoming one of my favourite places :-)
I'm with Margo in Elan. We're setting out on a new adventure.I'm also in Minnesota. A man (we can't call well liked) was found in the river. I wish people would quit pointing fingers. It's stirring things up.
I forget every week, Margo. Thank you for the reminder.I am with Janice in Minnesota in 1958 where a man's body was found in the river. People really do jump to conclusions and the rumor mill is going strong.
I'm also visiting a small private college in Northern California where one student has died and five others have gone missing. I'm trying to figure out what happened and where the kids are.
I am not in Minnesota. I am in Massachusetts. It is an "M" state though :)
I am in Alberta. My husband just died and I’m finding out he wasn’t who I thought he was.
I'm in London, England where my husband has been involved in a hostage situation. I was shocked to find out that he wasn't a hostage, but the gunman. Later tonight I'm heading to a small island community where I once witnessed a crime committed by a notorious serial killer and where my father has just died under mysterious circumstances. I plan to uncover the truth of what happened.

I'm in a small village outside of London and a dread witchfinder has showed up and already arrested my friend. He's setting his sights on me too.
I'm on the Scottish Island of Orkney looking for a book (which I'm sure I'd be doing if I was there IRL as it's uninhabited!)
I'm on my ship in the Persian Gulf looking for a girl who was kidnapped, willingly kidnapped.I'm also in a dystopian world where women are nothing but breeders and treated worse than slaves.
I am traveling in my wagon telling fortunes to the villages I come across and the Guild Mage is following me because they want to use my powers for war.
I'm on a big ship chasing down a man that reportedly wants to kill my companions and me. We have decided to kill him first. We just need to do it so no one knows it was us.
I am in a luxury resort in West Virginia and the state department just got here to try and take over my hotel for the war effort.
I'm in Massachusetts right now, for a short time. My family is cursed that we must constantly be on the move. No setting down roots, or we'll turn into a tree. I'm also in Washington. I've been sent here by my convent to provide nursing assistance in the civil war.
I’m in NY. I went to find my mother who is in hiding.
I am also in New York. I have been shot in the line of duty, and headed to the Adirondacks to recuperate. There is something odd about the house across the lake.Today is my birthday, and I get to read the day away!
I’m on a small island near Savannah Georgia. I’m competing with another writer to write the life story of a famous woman.I’m also a reporter in Arizona trying to get a big break in news.

Happy birthday Sharon. Read to your heart's content.

Happy birthday Sharon :-)I'm in 16th century London. I am 10 years old and one of my fathers lords in waiting is paying me a bit too much attend. I don't like it.
I’m spending Mother’s Day in Vegas hunting a serial killer.
I will shortly landing in Elan. I would have touched down last night if my eyes had stayed open!
I'm in India. I am the goddess of the river, and I've been cursed to a mortal life. I've also returned to Elan and I'm not sure exactly what's going on. There's talk of killing.
I've just gotten my degree in shoe design and I'm about to volunteer to go on the reality dating show that my stepmother produces. I'm hoping the publicity will jump start my career in the fashion industry. Later tonight, I hope to head to Long Island with a man I can't stand in order to convince another man that I can't stand to write a song for a movie I am trying to get green lit.
I am in Elan with Margo. We have "the gift" and the gift. One is magic power and the other is an actual gift. I am also in Hollywood where I am designing costumes in the movies. I'm running from terrible secrets and am living under an assumed name.
I'm still in Long Island trying to convince a poster to write a song for a movie I want developed. I'm also on an island with a group of magical children.
I'm still in Elan on yet another adventure. I don't really expect to survive this. I'm also in Stockholm where a child has been abducted from a train in broad daylight. It's frustrating to work with this team. They think I'm incompetent, but there is so much they are overlooking.
I am in WWI France spying on the Germans.
I am currently in Maine outrunning a forest fire.I am also in Minnesota making red chocolate cake.
I'm going to be in California (1938) and Austria (1947) where a 16 year old girl will find herself pregnant after her mother passes away and will be sent away by the family that took her in.
I'm in 1881 New York city recovering from four years thinking I would marry one man who was never actually interested in me. Now I'm reinventing myself.
I'm in Elan with Janice and other magical creatures ;-pI'm also on the downs beside lake Windermere (UK). I've just slipped and hurt my ankle badly.
I'm in Normal, Kentucly and I have just discovered another dead body. This happens to me too frequently. My detective boyfriend is not happy about this.
I'm also on a Caribbean island trying to solve a closed room mystery. One woman has confessed, but she doesn't know anything about the murder, but she's sure she did it.
