“How did you even remember where that was?” Virgil hadn’t seen the tiny dishes for years. It had been a part of Viv’s collection of Odd Little Kitchen Things.

My sister made this gorgeous version of the villain, Hamelin. Those jewels clutched in her tiny claws are very powerful--so no sudden moves!
Don't be deceived by how adorable she looks in this picture. Hamelin is three feet tall, commands an army of werewolves, and eats the hearts of her living victims.
This softer, gentler version is my lucky charm and (like my sister) she always makes me feel like I will succeed.
Close, but no cigar. And I remain implausibly optimistic!
Stay tuned. It will be soon.
