Main character in my Gothic adventure, Live by Watchfire. She is born in the Natal Colony in Africa to a Zulu mother and white father, and later becomes a hunter of supernatural horrors in Victorian Britain.

Today's #wipsnips word is "table".

This is from a WIP which blends reality and fiction, with Arthur Conan Doyle as the main character. It is framed as a modern narrator going through Doyle's notes.

Doyle becomes the very detective he was looking for as he gets thrown into a mysteirous case.

Nothing like kicking back with a cup of tea and a wholesome Victorian novel.
