I have been suffering from writers block lately. But really it is just percolating. By that I mean that I may not be writing but I am thinking writing. Trying to find what the characters want to do and become. I believe that Bernadette’s young sister, Agnes, is wanting to come in now. She has an interesting back story. After she was taken by the clan chief’s wife she was put into a convent where nun’s could take care of here. She was given food and shelter but was treated little better than a slave due to her foundling status. She knew there was a better life and so resented the women who she served. Some did not treat her well and she grew to be angry and cruel. The queen of the Slig Maith has been looking for her just in case she has the power that Bernadette has, and she does. The queen chooses to teach Agnes, who has changed her name to Annes. Annes will meet Bernie when she is 10 years old and Bernie is 17. We’ll see what happens…
