    ThumbnailOh, how I have missed zombies–the lifeless stare, the slow, cumbersome movements, the way they are ended by beheading. Jane Slayre takes me back to the book that started my downward spiral into the dark depths of […]

    ThumbnailThe color red gets a bad rap. 
    It must have been a terrifying experience for ten-year-old Jane Eyre (or Jane Slayre in this case) to be confined to the eerie Red Room of Gateshead.  Locked-in with no escape.  Can […]

    ThumbnailWomen bear names not their own. 
    We take up our names.

    Like tattered shrouds
    Because we […]
