I love a scary book with a puzzle in the plot. I just finished The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert and I need to get the second book in her series. How did you like The Practice? (less)

I read and write mostly horror, so I'd have to be careful where I visit. I suppose the world of Midnight, Texas in the novel Day Shift by Charlaine Harris would be a safer bet. I'd visit the pawnshop there and the cafe for some home cooking. I live in Texas, so I think I'd fit in too, even though I don't have any magical talents!(less)

I don’t remember the prompts for this one. I think the genre must have been Adventure or something like that. I do remember thinking this ended up a hot mess, and looking back at the feedback I received the judges agreed. It didn’t advance, and it has languished in my files since February 2023. Here it is now, for you to enjoy. (Or not)
