The downside of feeling better 
So I went out with the credit card, bought food that won't kill me, telling myself I'll just have to live because I can't go three days without eating just because there's nothing in the house my bio-molecular structure won't give the finger to, and found a liquid vitamin D supplement that's about as pure as you can get: no gluten, vegan-friendly, no preservatives, with an extra kick of cherry. I took a tablespoon of it last night, played a game with my husband, watched a movie with him, and went to bed an hour later than I have been the past two nights--which, by the way, I've been getting 8+ hours of sleep each night for the past three.

The Truthteller
The Truthteller, Chapter 16San almost forgot to change before he went out. Only his grandmother’s call stopped him from going out the door in his disciple’s robes. “Do you not wish to wear something less noticeable?”The Truthteller, Chapter 16
It almost felt wrong, taking off the uniform he had worn for so long in favor of other clothes. In the end he could not bare to part with all of it, so he kept the tunic and hat while putting on his old trousers. The sandals, of course, he kept as well. They were his. That was the deal.
It was also part of the deal that he end his discipleship after four weeks, but that did not stop San from feeling like one.

The Truthteller, Chapter 1“He’s barely got anything on him! He’ll notice the weight difference!”The Truthteller, Chapter 1
“No, he won’t. Now shut up.”
“Yes, he will!”
“Would you shut your mouth already? What he’ll notice is your damn yapping!”
“…He looks real strong.”
“I noticed, thank you!”
“Well, what if he catches you?”
“Then I’ll tell him you told me to do it! Now shut up or get out of here.”
“…Keri’s gonna kill you if you get caught.”

The Truthteller, Chapter 2“Quadage,” the old woman ordered as she spread out her good reed rug on the floor of the one-room shack. “Sit down.”The Truthteller, Chapter 2
San did as he was told. Not because he wanted to be obedient, or because he loved his grandmother, or even because he enjoyed the ritual. He did it because this was the few things that reminded him of the people he would never see again.
His grandmother sat behind him on her knees. She could sit like that for hours, and she was proud of it. While she was considered too old to carry her weight among the Keils, their nomadic tribe, she was hale and hearty compared to the other women h

The Truthteller, Chapter 3The herald, who introduced himself as Kittik Keed, led San down the market vendor line. Everyone there from Gevric knew who and what San was, and almost everyone with eyes could tell Kittik Keed’s place, so the pair ended up attracting more than their share of funny stares.The Truthteller, Chapter 3
Master Keed did not seem to mind. He was casual in his stride, and treated every salesman they stopped at to a smile and a warm greeting. These vendors, who ended up being all cloth merchants, would stare back and give a nervous grin before realizing that they were not being caught for some shady deal and could relax.

Fairytale Disasters, Chapter 2Chapter Two Sir Periour had every intention of disliking Astin. Not hating him, of course, since hate was quite a strong feeling to have for someone the knight did not know. But he was far from feeling indifferent about the lad who'd snaked his way to one of the most prestigious honors a knight could receive through nothing more than good timing and dumb luck. An HEA assigning a farmer to protect a prince? How impractical and insulting could destiny get? Yes, Sir Periour realized that stranger things had happened. He'd once known a deaf mute who'd become one of the most successful debate champions in all of Falfarawi by virtue of his abFairytale Disasters, Chapter 2

Fairytale Disasters, Chapter 1Chapter One Astin Maner's life, unlike so many citizens of Falfarawi, was not a fairy tale. He had yet to meet a pegasus, never attended a royal ball, and, if he had a fairy god mother, the two of them had not been introduced. Wish-granting gypsies did not go out of their way to travel to his family's tiny farm, which lay southwest of everything that could be considered remotely interesting. He actively avoided double-talking peddlers of dubious wares. No one in his immediate family had met their end via sadistic, food-obsessed witches-though it was speculated that a flan sent to a town mayor years ago had something rather unfortunate tFairytale Disasters, Chapter 1
