I’m feeling more and more like the decision to keep Kelly anonymous was the right thing to do. This world is too obnoxious for her. She certainly was an “exotic spice stirred into the bubbling cauldron of America’s damaged psyche” and oh what a toxic brew we’ve become. Sad that sometimes those inciting ingredients begin with innocence and good intention.
Hi Kimberly. :) you always leave the best comments. As the story, unfolds, it’s kind of like a stew that stirs in more and more ingredients. Thank you for being here always.
This is such a bold choice for the narrative! An inventive way to show the darker side of fame and genius and coincidence, and the ways people look for answers, and when they can’t find any, at least somewhere to place blame. I agree with Kimberly— such a good choice for Kelly to be anonymous.
Goodness Ben! This is inspired! The tie-in with the WTC, this is a turn I didn't expect... although maybe I should have? Leftie's ambitions even to date are not limited... I am wondering what's next now?
I can see why you're proud of this chapter, Ben. What a cool tie-in. I gasped when I read about the fourth set of panels, how prophetic they were. I'm dying to know how people found Marabelle. . . . And of course, what happens next!
But what a pleasure to return to this story as it deepens and broadens. Love the image of the installation appearing and of its mysterious disappearance. And the idea that it called people to their different destinies is so intriguing.

Thanks, Stephanie. I always love seeing you catch up on chapters in a flurry. Thanks for being here.
Ha! My m.o. is fall behind, then binge to catch up. Luckily your chapters are quite bingeable!

Go big or go home, right? Thanks so much for reading, Susie.

Thank you, friend. I’m so glad you like the direction. This is the first big turn and of course, there are more to come!
" I'm dying to know how people found Marabelle." Julie, Yes!
Sorry to have gotten behind!
