2 PARTS. LIVEJOURNAL. BUTTS.

The Comfy Mountain Motel is also a real place (but I changed the name because of reasons). So is the museum they stop at later, but I took a bunch of liberties with that one because (a) I couldn't find details on what it actually has there and (b) the scene was originally written for a different museum all the way back ( Read more... )

Trigger Warning: Suicide.
( Roxanne yawns and blinks a few times, shaking her head and peering at the road. )

Again, a huge thank you to Karen B. Jones for road trip ideas (and all the other ideas, too!). This chapter would have sucked without her.

This is in 2 parts again.  Livejournal.  Butts.

So this is a fairly short chapter, because if I didn't cut it where I did, it would end up being somewhere in the vicinity of fifteen thousand words instead of five, and as much as I like the long chapters (and I've decided I do rather like the long chapters), there is such a thing as too much.  And there is some incredibly personal stuff coming up ( Read more... )

Here we are again! Oh man, I can't believe how excited I am to start posting this.  I've been looking forward to this since halfway through Cold Fusion.  *rubs hands together* This is a fairly short first chapter; I'm trying to avoid the crazy-long chapters from Hallows' Eve but maintain natural pacing.  I'm still working on how much is too much ( Read more... )

To anyone who is following me...Sorry about the massive spam-posts today.  I had a few free hours and wanted to get this finished and updated.  Hope you understand!
