This was phenomenal. Great intro. I love the social quirks you’ve set up with Judith. The “I’m sorry for your loss, here’s my Venmo,” moment was the absolute icing on the cake for me!
Lots of fun threads for us to follow over the course of this story! I'm excited! I really like the contrast between Judith's character and her supernatural oddities. Really looking forward to this!
Great introduction. For one with a rational character, it must be conflicting for Judith Temple to become an unwitting individual that possess supernatural abilities. Love the inner conflict there, also I can totally relate with being unable to speak smoothly in social situations, so that is quite relatable.
The symbolism is also great, corpse left to rot, perhaps it is already bare to the bones underneath a pile of rotting leaves. I love it.
I look forward to what the mountains will reveal. Thank you for sharing this piece.
Okay, FIRST OF ALL, where did you get these pictures of my past apartment kitchens?? Are you also psychic? I'm onto you.
This is fantastic as always. It's a great start. The characters are magnetic and we've been given just enough information to make us think we know what happened...which means it's going to be FUN going forward.
I started reading the first line. Then the second. Then the third. You had me right up until the end. I’m here for this mystery. Thank you for writing it and sharing it with us. I hope to enter the wonderful world of mystery writing in 2025. Your story will give me the confidence I need. And a damn good story too!
I have a few theories going about Constance and about the missing sister. But I much rather see where you plan to take us.
Yay!
Very nice start. A bit of Charlaine Harris to it! I’ll check out part 2 tomorrow.
Thanks for stopping by to read it!
This is great! Looking forward to reading more.

Thank you! Judith’s awkwardness is very fun to write. 😂

Thank you so much!!
It didn't take me long to lose myself in this story! So good! I grew up running in the hollers; I could smell the cold air and the leaf rot. More!
Ooh, I love this. The characters, the setting, all of it.
Damn.
Yes.
More.
👏👏👏
Thank you, a good read!🩶 I love Judith’s character, the pragmatic rational type, riddled with a supernatural gift. Cool.

Thank you! Hopefully the surprises end up being surprising (🤞)! I’m so excited, but I’m feeling the pressure a little bit! 😅

Thank you so much! I’m a huge mystery buff, and I’m excited to see what 2025 brings for you!!
Oooh, great start!
Wow wow wow. Brilliant start. I love the characterisation - and I totally relate to Judith's struggle with social niceties and conversation skills!
Thank you so much! Judith is so fun to write - she’s basically me with slightly fewer interpersonal skills and much less of a filter! 😂
Wonderful, Bridget. I'm on my way to Kentucky with Judith!
Hooray!
can't wait for more
Thank you!
