I know she's just a character but I've been writing her for a year. Mena, my novel's lead female character, was stunning. Writing about her for so long, and then killing her off, well, I feel as though I've lost her, too, and that the lead male character isn't the only one. In other news, power outage? That was sweet... Also, I get to go and see John Mayer (yaaaay) and Counting Crows (iiick) on Monday at SPAC. This is fucking sweet. previous - next
