my character list and thought I might do a bit of a writing exercise with another pair. Immediately, Nora & Dagesh popped into my head. I can only imagine how difficult it is to have twins, and add that into the grueling environment of the ice planet? I can imagine that a new mom (times two) would struggle. I also wanted to delve a bit more into Asha’s story, because there are always two sides to everything. How would it feel if you were special, and then one day…suddenly not?
The story flowed like water and I hope you enjoyed it. Even better, we’re now rolling on BARBARIAN’S TOUCH. Yay!
Also, a special thank you to Marlena Maier for the name suggestion for Ariana and Zolaya’s baby!
