Ok I have posted for Jessamy.. and am preparing a "meanwhile back on the farm " post which I will try to put up tomorrow.

Well, I'm not quite sure what I'm doing, but I posted. Haha. I'll try and get some actual plot going myself...I just need an idea that will work to bring everyone back 'together' in some way or another...

Ok have posted for Jess and I have assumed that there have always been Butterburs at the pony.... I didn't forget the date!

Hmm. So I think I am going to introduce a new character. Hopefully that will come soon, and it will be interesting.

Btw, anyone can still jump in at anytime and even completely hijack this thing. Well, don't use anyone's characters (except you may use mine), but go ahead and throw a major wrench in things! What else lurks in barrows besides skunks? Do wolves really leave the Old Forest to hunt in the middle of the afternoon?

Unless you all (you all meaning you two) are ready to call this quits. I'm not asking because I want to call it quits, just asking because I am afraid this hasn't been as interesting as I would have liked it to be...and it is all of a sudden December...

No I don't .... I just kept forgetting my data stick with half a post on. I wish there were more involved but I am enjoying it...

Sorry, December means a busier season but count me in still. Will try to post something soon.

Nice work on the recent posts, too. I'll have to put some thought to this. *mad laughter*

I think Jessamy may be deceived by the lie of the land and perhaps a spur of the forest at its top edge (Barbara Strachey shows a bulge in the wood line and I will take the liberty of thinking maybe 80 years earlier it was greater...) or maybe her fears are realised and the old forest isn't such a fixed entity!

Jessamy has managed to land herself in my consciousness so clearly, dragging her family and backstory that I will have to write her story regardless.. at the moment I "know" more about what will happen when her family realise she isn't where she is supposed to be than about herself but I am getting a few ideas now between wolves and wights and wandering woods...
