Liking this more and more! Great pacing and mood. Love the way Judith overlays the visions with scientific approach. She’s a great character and this is running along smoothly!

That’s it’s own reward, isn’t it? I’m in for the ride. Taking my time so I don’t catch up too quickly!

This is such a great spin on the psychic concept - the way she is so analytical and data driven. And I loved this line: "But it was layered with her own preconceptions, emotions, worldview, mood – a complex web of filters that snatched away certainty." It's about her understanding of her "gift," but it's also about how people process any experience. Fantastic.

It must be tough being Judith, the character is continually struggling to come to terms with the conflicting feelings of what is rational and supernatural and I like that. Glad I am able to keep up. Thank you for sharing this.
