message 501: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58953 comments Currently, I'm attending school in Florida. I don't speak and I've met a boy who mystifies me.

I just left Dawson and the gold rush behind. I should be arriving in India a little later today. I'll be replacing a girl who died, and I need to convince them that I'm her.

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19159 comments I'm still in Cambridge, UK in 1150something, trying to work out who is killing children in horrible ways as I am a doctor. However, the English are backward, and I have to conceal I am a doctor, as I am also a woman.

Sharon Hopper | 2314 comments I am in Nazareth investigating a cult.

I am also in Martha’s Vineyard getting ready to celebrate Thanksgiving.

Esther (nyctale) | 5161 comments My eyes just went to pray on a bridge between 2 armies.

My ears just gave birth to a snake.

I read that book years ago and loved it.

Jackie | 290 comments I'm in Ireland trying to reunite former babies (now adults) with their birth mothers. I've had some success but I have not revealed my history to anyone.

I am enjoying it as well. I wouldn't have picked it up without the horrible histories prompt!


message 508: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58953 comments Today I'm in Ireland. Our Viking ship has just landed there.

I'm also about to perform an autopsy on a body found stuck in a chimney. For some reason, it has attracted a lot of observers. It's standing room only.


message 509: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 18703 comments I'm always so surprised when this thread pops up in my notifications. Almost every time - Oh, it's Sunday! lol

I'm a 25 year old maid that struggles with social clues working at a hotel where a man was killed. I found his body and have gotten tangled up in a mess.

I'm also a 13 year old German immigrant in Philadelphia during the Spanish flu of 1918. My mom just died from the flu leaving me alone to take care of my baby twin brothers while my dad is away at war.


message 510: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15864 comments My eyes are in a Swedish city that's definitely not Stockholm, trying to get to the bottom of a bank robbery turned hostage situation.

My ears are trying on other versions of my life.


message 511: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11429 comments I'm in New York on the run from an abusive relationship I seen to have brought my partners child with me.


message 512: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2314 comments I’m in New York trying to defend my client who looks pretty guilty. Little did I know the real killer sits on the jury.


message 513: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11429 comments I'm in Portland, Oregon with a gargoyle who's an amazing cook. I need to save his life so I don't go hungry 😋


message 514: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15864 comments I'm still in that apartment in Sweden and also still in a midnight library. I think I'll leave both today. Not yet sure where I'm going next.


message 515: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2314 comments I am also in an apartment in Sweden. There is something strange about the girl next door.


message 516: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I am in my icebound boat in the Artic with my wife, waiting for my brothers to arrive. I can barely hear them on the radio. The blizzard, blowing out on the ocean ice is trying to end them.


message 517: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58953 comments I'm in Scandinavia after returning from our journeys. I'm ready to build a home and church, and turn my people from the Norse gods to the Christian gods.

I'm also in Israel. Could it be that we've found the remains of Jesus?


message 518: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 18703 comments I'm living in an elderly community in England and a man has just been murdered.

I'm now headed back to the hotel where I work as a maid and another man was murdered.


message 519: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58953 comments I'm in a reimagined fantasy world based on Spain. I've just been exciled for 2 years and my wife is majorly pissed off.

I'm also in the village of St. Mary Mead in England where a man was found murdered in my study. You'd think the vicarage would be safe from that kind of thing.


message 520: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11429 comments I'm in a relationship full of toxic masculinity and racism - and I seem to be loving it :(


message 521: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15864 comments I'm in a homeless hostel in Dover, trying to make life a little better.

I'm also in Philadelphia in the 18th century. I'm actually from the 20th century myself.


message 522: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2314 comments I am being haunted by three ghosts at Christmas time! Yikes!

I am also in the middle of a world that I created as an author. I mean, really in that world. Right now, I prefer writing about it and wish I had made my characters more like able.

And…I am part of a police force in Alaska. There aren’t many of us. And there just might be a serial killer on the loose!


message 523: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 18703 comments I am all over the place today. I am currently stuck in a dead end job in Hawaii (There are worse places to be stuck!) and getting ready to have an adventure sailing a couple of women out to the remote Meroe Island in the Pacific. The island has a pretty shady history.

Next I'll be off a retirement village in England where my friends and I are trying to solve a couple murders.

Finally, I'll be staying in England, but going back in time to around 1843 where I will be visited by 3 ghosts.


message 524: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11429 comments I've completely forgotten the name of the land I'm in but hey, I'm the queen and I can turn into a swan -that's all I need to know 😁


message 525: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15864 comments I'm also in England with Kristie. I had the first ghostly visit already.

I'm also in Stratford in England. I'm currently a Latin tutor falling in love with my future wife.

And I'm also alternating between 1980s Scotland, 1739 Scotland, and late 18th century US. Too much going on to summarize in one sentence!


message 526: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 18703 comments I finished at my retirement village, but did not make it back to England 1843 last weekend. So, I am heading back to England today.

I will also be going to Hawaii where I've lost my job and will be headed to Meroe Island soon.

Esther (nyctale) | 5161 comments My eyes are on the Rocinante... for the last time.

My ears are in Argentina, trying to convince my girlfriend to flee the country.


message 528: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58953 comments Have I moved from last week? No. I'm still in a fantasy Spain rescuing my parents, and I'm still in St Mary Mead where I keep falling asleep and not making any progress.


message 529: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2314 comments I am in England.

On one hand, I am in modern England with an unusual charge. I “look after� a grown man with some unusual qualities. There seems to be a labyrinth somewhere on the grounds but I haven’t discovered it yet.

I am also in Regency England. I am a ghost in human form regretting how I handled my estate’s affairs. I have a plan to help my younger brother be successful and it is close to Christmas time.

In “real� life, I am trying to get through a mound of wrapping taking “reading breaks� every so often.


message 530: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58953 comments I'm in Chicago where the bodies of two men have been found staged with runic carvings. Looks like we have a serial murderer on our hands.

Later today, I'll also be in Austin where it sounds like I'll be having a showdown with my creator, the evil (view spoiler).


message 531: by Rusalka, Moderator (last edited Dec 19, 2021 06:55AM) (new)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19159 comments I just finished up in Three Pines in Quebec. I have a feeling I will be back...

Heading back to the steppes of Uzbekistan. I have no idea what is going on, or what time I am in (and it changes chapter to chapter) but this town is filled with colourful characters who have faired tribal conflicts, Soviets, and Nazis reasonably well considering.


message 532: by Esther (new)

Esther (nyctale) | 5161 comments My eyes are in po
My ears are back doing the spy and assassin thing. It seem I am still good at it.


message 533: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2314 comments I am in Scotland with my two sisters and parents. Hope we survive the holiday.

I am also remembering when I attempted to escape from a female juvenile detention center�


message 534: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11429 comments Ah, forgot it was Sunday! I'm in the air somewhere over the Pacific. It seems that someone back home if threatening my my daughter.


message 535: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I am inside Charon’s Crossing Tea and Treats and I have just met Hugo Freeman. I don’t know what is going to happen next!

I've been here, Cherie. I really enjoyed my visit. :)


message 537: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 18703 comments I'm in London where I've become a social outcast. There have been three recent related murders and I'm going to solve them.


message 538: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 58953 comments It doesn't feel like Sunday with Christmas yesterday.

I'm in London where a young woman's body was found frozen in the ice and I've been made lead on the case.

I'm also in Los Angeles where a man's drowned body was found in a submerged carnival cage.


message 539: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2314 comments On one hand, I am in a tea shoppe in Charleston during Christmas time. There has been a murder and I have been asked to investigate.

On the other hand, I have just arrived at a beautiful old inn on the banks of the Oyster River in New Hampshire. I won the trip as part of an award I received as a professor. It’s beautiful, but something is not right as I keep seeing visions of the past…or are they visions?

.."


Agreed Janice, this sunday just sorta suck up on us!

I think I'm in the US. I'm jumping from a man (who seems a tad insane) to a girl to a cat. It's all a better unsettling. I like it best when I'm a cat.


message 541: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 18703 comments I’m in Texas. A drug dealer has called me for help because the cartel kidnapped his 18 year old daughter and took her into Mexico.
