As I get myself organized to put out the ebook of "The Nominal Hero" -- it's getting there, I swear! It's just been quite the month with my day job, and the holidays, and this unseasonably miserable weather, and the suspiciously large flocks of ducks I keep seeing everywhere, which I begin to think may be following me around...

Ahem.

Anyway, as I was saying: as I get things organized for the ebook, it belatedly occurs to me that I don't have an index post, which a more organized person would definitely have put together sometime before they finished their entire book. Let's all pretend I did this earlier, shall we? Much appreciated.

But instead the witches only looked otherworldly, their strangeness adding to their dignity somehow. It was Mushroom who broke the stillness. They jumped down from the stage and strode to the border of the trees, and spoke rapidly and urgently to the witches, in a low voice that Caden couldn’t hear. The witches swayed in unison, listening, and then a few of the closest inclined their heads in what might have been agreement. Mushroom bowed, and came back. “What was that about?” Caden asked quietly. Mushroom shook their head. “Later.” “Okay, but what--” Masami began, but then sto

The Nominal Hero, Chapter 1: Specially Marked Boxes

Here it is, friends: the beginning of the new project! The Nominal Hero (A Nounish Tale) by Tasha K. Rookswater Chapter 1: Specially Marked Boxes It was one of those days where everyone seemed to want to make things Caden’s fault. First he was late getting out the door to school. That was maybe a little bit his fault, because he was reading during breakfast and stayed in his seat to finish the chapter instead of getting up and brushing his teeth. But it wasn’t fair of his mother to say he was dawdling, and anyway he would have had plenty of time if he’d been allowed to run to school by himself. Instead he had to walk with Paz, his little sister, and she really did dawdle, stopping to stare at the construction equipment in the Wellco lot or to poke at the snowbanks with a stick. By the time he dropped her off at the gate of the little kids’ yard, the kinders were already filing into the school building, and the bell had rung. That meant the gate to the main s
