Insert Excuse For Why I Haven't Posted

I was at a standstill for how to start the last chapter until I saw this quote, which Corinne riffs off of in the beginning...although to be honest it's more of a Princess Diaries reference than an Eleanor Roosevelt one.

Chapter Six
Yes, chapter 6 was a bit of filler, but I also wanted to dig a little more into Corinne as a character. Her narration tends to hide things like her being a foster child, so I needed her to have a conversation to dig into her past.

Vice 2 Update: About 7,000 usable words, no title ideas in sight.We do have a playlist going though

Bye, Bye Pandora
Can I take a moment for how obsessed I am with Spotify ? While it's radio function isn't as good as Pandora's I love how I can make playlists within it. I'm blogging about this because I've discovered a new section....the browse section !

They have user curated playlists by mood and genre and it's been really helpful for me. So, if I need a song for a coffee shop scene I go to that playlist or if I need a new love romance song I go to that playlist. This feature has been my new crutch, because the playlists were getting skimpy.


Chapter 7
It's been a minute, so I'll do a longer previously...
Corrinne's break up is going less than stellar, so Jonah takes her out to see the city. Before they can start answering questions about Abigail they are interrupted by Matthew--Jonah's piano savant frenemy--who happens to also have access to an archive of school papers that may have the answers to Abigail's life or death. After being interrupted before, Jonah is getting to the archives to get answers no matter what ! 

Chapter7
Playlist
-1-  Pachabel Cannon in D-
- 2- Fireflies by Owl City (VSQ)

  1. What's this ? A playlist with no Top 40 or awesome throwback music ? I'm worried Shawna, JK.

    1. Well, to be honest they are a little bit based on an article I saw about Stephen King's family and another writer...who I'll mention later.

  12. It seems like Abigail wasn't a student, it seems more likely she was a kid at the hospital.

    2. Ethan kind of has a one track mind. He wants to be an Olympic Triathlete and he thinks doing anything else will take away from that.
