    Very interesting,
    their agency was keeping or trying to keep tabs on Gwens family since then👀 Wow, Doc Key would see her as that, wow. Very interesting chapter, honestly was fun to read on how they first met and interacted I forgot what was going on in the world😵 I also had the exact thought as Bella when she said
    "Bella, she's not..."
    got me, hehe

    @BlueSeaWaves, thank you
    Turns out Miranda isn't the only member of her family to have an interesting time growing up. :)

    Poor Bella... Cas isn't the only one struggling with that mother/daughter relationship.

    edited March 10
    I'm thinking of putting a Characters page on the blog, with images and brief descriptions of each character to help people keep track of who is who. (Like I did at the start of College Years but for all the stories.)

    I'm wondering how best to organize it. Should I do it by "book" to try to avoid too many spoilers? Or should just I group characters by common type or theme (all the vampires, all the werewolves, all the gangsters, the college crowd)?

    Thoughts?

    By book is how I would do it
    As the main characters and few others have aged as time goes by

    I would do it by character and then in the description have a note for each "book" they appeared and a brief explanation of how they differed in that. I'm getting tired and I'm still in that brain fog a little bit so my explanation may be a bit rubbish.😆

    Awesome!

    Ohhh that Elly is.... GRRRRRRR

    I love these school parts, you write the dialogues so well, again I felt like I was watching a movie!
    My love, my love, my fearless love, I will not say goodbye..
    Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
    My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
    Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..

    @Ellupelluellu, thank you
    Mean girls gotta be mean. :)

    Thank you again. I had a lot of fun writing that part.

    @luciusstorm Oooh new chapter!
    That exchange between Cas and Elly is so true of so many conversations with the mean girl in every school. I really enjoyed the way Cat gave as good as she got in the exchange.😈 Very well written.😃

    You did a great job too showing those first tentative romantic overtures. Cas is giving a lot of herself to Gwen but not nearly all, and totally unsure of where that line is because she's flying blind into a storm of the heart and no compass to trust to point her in the right direction.💞

    @DaniRose2143, thank you
    Elly is so wonderfully bad. I'm sure that wasn't the first time she and Cas have faced off.

    Falling in love is such a fantastic, confusing and exciting thing.

    I'm having a lot of fun writing this story.

    "and they found him eventually. He was fine."
    Eventually 😂 Love Gwen
    Really love how supportive Molly is, she’s great.
    Elly on the other hand🫠 You can really tell that lunch period was awkward but seeing Molly’s look was great. She was giving her that look 😆
    Cass working up that courage ❤️
    Great update 😁

    @BlueSeaWaves, thank you
    Even present-day Gwen has some gaps in her perception of mortals. :)

    I like Molly... She's got an interesting dynamic with the rest of the group. I hope I can show more of it.

    Elly... is fun to write but wouldn't be fun to spend time with.

    You're right that she has that dynamic with them, she's been a great addition to the story, hope to see more of her. No doubt about that with Elly

    Career Day!
    This chapter was one of those gifts of the game. I didn't plan or script it ahead of time. It just happened, in all it's strange glory. At various times as I was writing, I considered not using it. In the end, it was too perfect to leave on the cutting room floor. So here you go. Enjoy.

    Ooh, you're really building up the suspense. What were Director Bridges and Jacques real motives for being there? I can't wait to find out!😃

    "That's something beyond even our usual strangeness." You would expect Miranda of all people would know that's not even remotely close to their usual strangeness. I love that it was Mariah that saw through that comment. She's settling into life with the Silveroak-Goth's nicely.🙂

    I have so much story to tell.

    Spies, gangsters, monsters... yeah, pretty much Wednesday morning at Glimmerbrook Watch. I think Mariah is finding her footing. :)

    @DaniRose2143, another thought...
    I think, in the end, Director Bridges couldn't do what she fears she will have to do without looking Gwen in the eyes first. She is a woman of principle.

    @luciusstorm , great!
    "You had a crime boss and a spy captain at Career Day, and all I got was the pervy manager from Gas 'n Gulp?"
    Made my day, lol, thanks :p

    Career day is very interesting, need to know more! B)

    Sorry I missed the update
    What are the chances the game would give you those two for career day. One of those gifts indeed. Director bridges can't look away from Gwen. Lmao at Mirandas career day, times have changed tremendously 😆 Jacques recruited someone 👀 Very interesting

    @BlueSeaWaves, no problem.
    I was stunned. Sometimes it's worth it to just play and see what happens.

    Miranda's time in Moonwood Mill was education but not because of the quality of the local high school. :)

    Another "gift of the game," that young man and Jacques. Not sure if I'll run with that. I know how he figures into the story and I'm deeply torn on whether or not to share more of it. Of everything in this chapter, I debated including that picture the most. In end I couldn't leave it on the cutting room floor.

    I know, I know... I actually have three more chapters written and I really want to share them, but I have to hold them back because otherwise I'll stress out about writing and then nothing will get written. :)

    I'm very glad to know you're excited to read more. Pay attention to the pictures too... I picked up some ideas from a certain great sim-mystery writer about using pictures in clever ways. :)
