I love, love, love your piece. An excellent account of the opening of a new path/journey into the unknown. Wow! Fantastic! Good - for - you.

Lately - as in writing a novella- the characters have been dictating the story to me, especially the female lead character - a driven young woman. You could say it's unconscious processes and yet it feels that the story was already written and waiting me to discover it.

Are you teasing a prompt with your words? As in: "What about you? What's your story?" Lettin your muse play?
