2. Personal: At 5 on I have been constantly moving. From KC to Omaha to a variety of small towns in Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska, to Ocean City Maryland to Baltimore to Washington DC to Des Moines through various small towns then back to Kansas City.
When moving from Washington DC to Des Moines my mom and brothers and I took a grey hound bus across country. The driver would get really annoyed when people asked questions. Especially as was contrary to posted sign.
Some kids tried to rob my brother in Chicago.
The bus station in Des Moines was incredibly clean.
I don’t like staying in one place too long.
I am interested in Gothic novels in the Romantic period.
These novels are divided into two categories, female gothic vs. male gothic or horror vs. terror.
Regardless of the type, typically involve a long series of removes from dismal locations.
The supernatural is constantly played with.
Often dismissed as morbid, sensationalist.
Charlotte Smith is a premier gothic novelist
Connections:
The cure is constantly moving. So am I. So do the heroines/villains in gothic novels. There are not bat caves, but subterranean passages in a lot of gothic novels. The underground. The name smith recurs.
