Wishing I could just wave my hand down my body, like my protagonist and snap all showered! Woke up with a full plot for ‘the quest’… want to get writing!

The term "Luddite" as a pejorative synonym for "technophobe" was a technocrat PR coup; that's not what Luddites were about. They were a labour movement fighting to give workers control over technologies which were advancing w/o oversight and rapidly automating them out of their jobs. Sound familiar?

I remind myself not to information dump during my edit… although it is so tempting to build my world by simply telling and not showing the ways my Protagonist experiences and weaves her way through it!

“Lord Protector?” she squeaked, “What the Goddess does that mean!”

Wicca is a pagan religion, its followers, called Wiccans , identify as witches… what about sorcery? A sub- Wiccan type of religion whose followers identify as sorcerers and sorceresses…but receive their powers from Gods and Godesses, they prefer to call it a spiritual practice. My YA Novel!

Who out there believes in ‘a writer’s muse’ ? A disembodied presence who helps us find a right word, a new idea, leads us to find holes in our plot…
