Never left the US other than a brief trip in Canada.
Never been farther west than St Louis when I met @Emil Ottoman and @Edith Bow. (approx. 1200 miles which is actually about the distance from London to Pompeii, fml the US is too goddamn big)
Pompeii, Giza, and Hiroshima are all on my luxe bucket list.
if you get chance to do pompeii make sure you do herculanium as well - i never made it but everyone says its even better (not sure how!) and possibly the museum in naples where most of the stuff they found there is kept. and lemon granita. yum.
“ in the distance over the villas and the water towers, high above the great aqueduct where the waters flow deep beneath their base, the mountains are burning. “
Holy shit this is amazing. Incredible.
Ilysm thank you ❤️🩹
That the article you tagged has this understated line: "This is a dramatic place."
Yeah. I'd say so.
Your narrative is heartbreaking, but it is the only one that I'll accept. This was amazing!
thank you!
I AM SO NERVOUS 😅
never considered taking on historical fiction until the word "plumbing" dropped in my lap.
I'm now convinced you can write any setting, you put so much DAMN HEART into your stories.
Heart and fucking voice.
Amazing, but so sad. But the slave obviously had his revenge...
Damn. 😳 This was incredible!
thank you! It felt weirdly cathartic writing his story
I love this! subtle, speculative but absolutely slots into truth like a key.
i want you to have written a whole novel about this relationship and what befalls them ultimately.
pompeii is amazing... have you been?

More, please. You're a gifted writer. This hurt my heart in the best way.
'A vast dark plume has borne from one of their peaks, great branches of thick black vapor curl across the sky." very nice
