Still working on Daimyo’s Decoy novella, but Ayane (from “The Shrine Keeper”) got into my head yesterday. (My mind tends to turn to fiction when I’m deep into a translation project — currently a 100-page PP presentation.) Going to write something longer than the original 1000 words I was limited to. You can read the original short story here:

My deepest thanks to Bruce Bethke for taking a chance on me (and Ayane).
