Day 7:

Utilizing an unseen aesthetic wonder.

The Gemfey, an empathetic centric magic culture, not only see the emotional aura of people, but also stars that exist within our atmosphere. Gemfeys utilize the pieces of fallen stars to aid in their magic abilities.

Black text on a white square background:

Fragment 

More than anythingโ€”
I remember your silence.
Maybe we were always meant to exist
in what was never said.

It will be a pjs day. No gym, not putting my nose out in the cold, just vegging in, watching movies and baking #Christmas cookies later.

What do you plan to do today?

When I wrote "Catatumbo" in 2019 I never imagined a US #military #CovertOperation #DarkOps in #Venezuela may potentially take place. Life can outpace #darkfantasy, it seems. Hopefully no vampires on Lake Maracaibo this time, though. amazon.com/dp/B0CWDZHT9S

Only 2 weeks and 1 day to go.
I am so, so SO ready for the #holidays.
Putting the tree up on Saturday will help, I hope. I need the cheer.

What about you? What do you look forward to this #Christmas?

Under pretense of a "complicated formula", Smashwords (and Draft to Digital) lowered their royalties rates significantly.

:(

They are barely above Amazon now. After the "let's hold paying you on until you reach your threshold" this is 1 more step that makes you reconsider.
