He rebuked himself for their closeness, for touching her in this manner, longing to trace the lips speaking such grace. He wouldn’t, of course. Not when questioning if this true affection, or gratitude for someone unbewitched by his mole. Diarmuid dared not name it anything more, and yet… Tightness gathered in his chest, strangely favorable. Moments like this, her body laid across him, relaxed, under his gentle caress were immeasurable. To deny his spirit feeling in its final days invited regrets that’d haunt his soul.

In #mythology, Diarmuid's mole enchants women to fall in love with him, but it doesn't work on Haley. She genuinely cares for him & that allows Diarmuid to let go, to feel & explore what he's been denying himself in the #afterlife with Haley.

Grief filled the expansion of his mind. Fionn’s hesitance hung over him like a storm, trailing him in death. Aengus informed him what transpired after, scattering fragments of his soul. He wept for his daughter, felled in her quest for vengeance. For his sons who marched to their deaths in the battle of Gabhra. Questioned the authenticity of love after the mole’s influence fizzled away and Grainne wed the man who orchestrated his demise. Aphrodite’s arrival exhumed the sorrows lost in the wind, raising his spirit from its slumber. She reforged his honor into hatred that burned to find Fionn and avenge the blood buried in his absence. Was that ambition truly misguided or merely the echo of impetuosity? Perchance the act of letting go would diffuse the hollowness. Redemption remaining unachievable unless he offered what he withheld in the chasm of despair. Forgiveness.

Healing Diarmuid's curse requires settling emotions that haunt him in the #afterlife. His death and encounter with Aphrodite left a dark mark on his soul. Haley guides him by working through emotions and finding peace. This beings with forgiveness.

It might be the height of hubris, but I know The Night of Fallen Gods is going to get published. I just need to get it in front of the right person at the right time. It’s got the juice.

Yes, there are. Just the usual ones, though. Modern world, modern holidays.

I got a lot of bad gift givers, people who forget, and of course, good ones.

#WIPSnips 7/20 "moon" Writing an epic fantasy for my kids. Trying to incorporate as many fantasy elements as I can. #Writesky #WritingCommunity #WritingPromps Tilya led the girls up the hill away from the wagons and the herd toward a flat grassy field at the edge of Moon Meadow. She talked about the shivergoats, and how the shepherds gave them funny names like April Showers and Blue Twilight. Donya talked about her favorite color of tulips. But Torithe was thinking about her dad's warning. "Why are the fairies dangerous if they were the ones who gave us shivergoats?" she asked. "They helped us a long time ago," said Tilya. "But things have been tricky since then. The shivergoats are all we have left of their friendship." Torithe's curiosity wouldn't go away. "Do you know why they are called shivergoats? I thought it was because they shiver when it gets cold, but your dad thought it's because the blue devils make people shiver with fright."

Technically this isn't a WIP, it's a finished story that hasn't been published yet. It's called "Pretty is as Pretty Does" & is a conversation I had with my mom a few years ago.
"She’ll get mad that I’m calling her out on her behavior."
