Six Sentence Tuesday Tag

Thanks for tagging me, @mysticstarlightduck! :D

This was supposed to be just the first paragraph, which is six-ish sentences. But I like the rest of this excerpt too much to not post it. So here are three paragraphs and a footnote from Houses Full of Deceit, in which Leo decides being chased by a serial killer gives him the perfect excuse to visit his crush:

"No!" Colman winced at how sharp he sounded. "I mean, um… The White Star Line ships go to Belfast. I'm from Belfast. We could, that is, I could find a hiding place for us somewhere. Maybe not even in Belfast. I know a chap who lives near Limavady, in a place called Loughlinter[1], or we could go to Portadown where I know a guy who owes me a favour—" Yo-han interrupted this litany of places he'd never heard of. "Or we could go to Enniskillen, which I believe is what you're trying to suggest indirectly." Colman actually, honest to god blushed.

[1] Loughlinter isn't a real place. The name was invented by Anthony Trollope for his Palliser series, and I've borrowed it for my future WIP, Uneasy Money, which is set in the same universe as The Case-files of Seo Yo-han.

Tagging @avrablake, @blind-the-winds, @tabswrites, @sarandipitywrites, and anyone else who wants to do this! :D

Home Front Disadvantage

1st January 1982

Residents of Southampton welcomed the new year with a bang: Quite literally. A cargo ship from South Africa docked in the port blew up at the stroke of midnight, injuring 7 people and nearly causing a stampede as New Year's Celebration revellers on the promenade ran away. PIRA has once again taken responsibility for the attack. Graffiti scrawled on a wall at the port read: HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR HOMELAND GETTING DESTROYED? Citizens are scared, and trust in the government is now at an all time low

In addition, the UDR 6th Battalion has pushed PIRA out a bit of Northern Derry County and the 9th Battalion has regained a significant amount of Southern Derry County, but have been stuck outside of the town of Limavady and Moneyneany respectively while waiting for backup from the RUC that supposedly did not come.

Notice Me Reader Tag

Thanks for tagging me, @ahordeofwasps! :D

Rules: Share 3 (or more!) small details from your WIP that you feel have gone/will go unnoticed. (You can choose whether or not to share why the detail is significant!)

I was tagged twice, so I'll give details from two WIPs!

The Case-files of Seo Yo-han (counting all of them as one WIP for this):

Shakespeare is referenced in every book:

Leo reads Richard II in The Unfortunate Moth.

Silver Glass has a quote from King Lear as the epigraph to the last bit of the flashback ("...I am a man/More sinn'd against than sinning").

Also in Glass, Phil quotes Othello when she says she and Alec both "loved not wisely but too well".

Houses Full of Deceit has a more light-hearted example according to the outline, where Leo attempts to flirt with Phil by reciting Romeo's "Juliet is the sun" speech. ("Attempts" is the key word.)

Mine Eyes Dazzle mostly references John Webster and Gilbert & Sullivan (yes, really!) instead, but one character quotes Henry V -- specifically Act 2, Scene II. Which gives Yo-han an important clue, because that scene is about a former friend who became a traitor.

2. The murderers in books 1 & 3 are foils, and so are the ones in 2 & 4. Leo kills because he's paid to, while Ji-hun kills because he enjoys it. Davit kills from a mixture of love and hate -- love of Alec, hate of Gwladys -- while the still-unnamed villain kills because they both love and hate their victim.

3. For most of HFOD everyone is running from Ji-hun. For the climax, I want to turn the tables on him. He sets a trap and thinks he's caught Leo and Yo-han, but really they know it's a trap and have set up one of their own! (Namely, Phil hiding nearby with a gun.)

Uneasy Money:

Of the seven Millner siblings, the three oldest are fluent in German, the middle two are semi-fluent, and the two youngest barely speak it at all. This is because their mother was German, and she died when the three oldest were teenagers. By then she'd spent years in Britain and had mostly stopped speaking German, so the younger children picked up less of it.

Loughlinter isn't a real place. I borrowed the name from Anthony Trollope's Palliser series. (Where, oddly, Loughlinter is in Scotland -- it should be spelt Lochlinter. So based on spelling alone, moving it to Northern Ireland makes more sense.) I'm still vague on where exactly it is. I'm leaning towards somewhere around Limavady solely because my crush is from there, but that doesn't fit with Helena's statement that it's "twenty miles from Belfast". (Limavady is sixty miles from Belfast.)

Everyone has very different ideas of what sort of story they're in. Gilbert thinks he's in a P. G. Wodehouse comedy, Helena thinks she's in a Georgette Heyer romance, Thomas thinks he's in an Emily Brontë Gothic novel, and Tarka thinks she's in a Charles Dickens mystery. All of them are partly right.

Hello from Gortmore Viewpoint in Limavady, Northern Ireland! 🇮🇪 Do you see Frejya in the back? What about the white frosted road covered in slick ice? 🙀 There goes me again not looking at road conditions prior to riding. This was probably one of the most nerve wrecking rides I’ve done to date. My knobbies gave me more peace of mind, but they don’t have spikes, so I was still really nervous. It was even hard to park without my kickstand and entire bike sliding! Nevertheless, I’m happy I saw the beautiful views at Gortmore Viewpoint, but am still questioning whether the ride was worth it. All I can say is: My goals are bigger than my fears. #chasingcrystal #northernirelandtourism #gortmoreviewpoint #causewaycoast #causewaycoastalroute #ladyrider #ladyriders #womenthatride #solofemaletraveler (at Gortmore Viewpoint) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpQe54KP-Ch/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
