Scribblings

I found a little treasure. I do this thing, I have a hundred notebooks and I write in them for a moment in time then tuck them away. I found one this morning from 2019. My hot pink portfolio has been helping me edit Legend 3 outside this week and this morning I dug through it looking for some pages that I had printed last night (they were on my desk) and discovered the notebook. Most of it was filled with old ideas about what to do in book 2 of Legend and even some scratch letters from Cason to Savannah from Serendipity of Fate.

The gold came on the last page of the notebook, I’m not sure which character this is an ode to but I have a feeling we’ll meet her in an upcoming book. I’ve transcribed it exactly as it was scribbled [read: not edited]. Enjoy.

Dark as night,
Worthy of pillow talks and dark dreams,
She’s the one you want to rescue
But cannot touch.
For she is the thing that goes bump in the night.
She is the thing that looks into the dark
and the dark flinches back.
She is everything good but keeps evil as her pet.
She is the woman you want to craddle next to your body
And dream of making love to.
But she sleeps with a sword and anger in her heart.
She is the thing that goes bump in the night.
She is death’s arch angel
And the woman I love.
