Before there was Touch of Fate…

….there was Signs, a short story which introduced Marianne and her daughter into my life.

I wrote Signs in 2003, then set it aside for almost a year. I remembered it when I took an on-line course on writing a mystery novel, at which point Touch of Fate was born.

Signs is a self-contained short story which takes place before the events in Touch of Fate. At one point, I considered turning it into a prologue for the novel, but dismissed the idea because I was going through an anti-prologue stage. (I’m over it now. 🙂 ) There is therefore no reason you can’t read this short story before you read Touch of Fate — it contains no spoilers. If you have read Touch of Fate, you may appreciate this glimpse into the back story described in the book.
