So I can't decide if this means my subconscious mind is brilliant or my conscious mind is painfully stupid.
Throughout Journal of the Dead, it's pretty obvious that "Micaerith" is basically the equivalent of Greece. And then I said it today, and I just about fell over:
Me: "I mean, Elenhine is Helen of Troy."
I stopped. I looked at the names. I slapped a hand to my forehead.
I cannot remember for sure now if I did it deliberately or accidentally, but ... dang.

About Me
- Lindsey Duncan
- I'm a professional harp performer, chef / pastry chef, and speculative fiction writer from Cincinnati, Ohio. My contemporary fantasy novel Flow is available from Double Dragon Publishing, and my science fiction novel Scylla and Charybdis is now out from Grimbold Books. I've also sold a number of short stories and a few pieces of speculative poetry. I write predominantly fantasy, usually epic and/or humorous, with some soft science fiction. I play the traditional lever harp with a specialty in Celtic music - but I also perform modern and Renaissance tunes. And yes, you read that right - I have a diploma in Baking and Pastry and an Associates in Culinary Arts and am currently working in the catering field at Kate's Catering and Personal Chef Services (Dayton, KY). I am a CPC (Certified Pastry Culinarian) and CSW (Certified Specialist of Wine).
