Ooh. Also Sebastian is adorable. I might need me a gargoyle.

Sebastian is! He’s a little character all on his own

Good groundwork! I like that we get a breather to hang with the characters and form attachments.😊

Thanks! I thought it would be a good time to get to know whose who. Because , as you know, a breather could just be the calm before the storm! 😁

An interesting chapter revealing an intriguing character. Sidenote: I have a new granddaughter named "Elara." I sent the paragraph describing her to her father.

Oh? Nice!

Also, thanks. This chapter really sets up some groundwork. And gives everyone a chance to catch their breath!

We all need chapters like that along the way. You do them well. I have too many of them as I try to set up the background of the story--and not enough action chapters, sadly. But they are coming!

Thanks! I'd love to say there's a trick to it ... but... I'm not sure what that would be! 🤣Sometimes, I view it like riding a themed roller coaster. Or if my heart is pounding from reading the previous chapters aloud, well it might be time for a "catch your breath chapter" to pick at the plot a bit deeper.

Great analogy! I'll have to keep it in mind.
