marinessFor those who didn't read this in their inboxes (and why not?) Daily Science Fiction now has Sparks up at their website.
A few of you asked what I was thinking with this, and the answer is, I'm not sure. The first sentence was originally part of something else, very unrelated (an unrelated that is slowly pushing its way into a novel that has nothing to do with sparks or wands or anything in this tale). I pulled it (and the original, completely different paragraph) from that something else, and then realized that I rather liked the sentence, so cut and pasted that into a new Word document, let it sit there for a few days, and then decided to see where it would go. This is kinda where it went. Sometimes stories are like that - not based on any particular idea, but something where the words just build, and the stories follow, creeping along, word by word.
