#WriteCBC task from @abigailj.bsky.social: Secrets are a great way to add intrigue and drama to your story. Write a mini-scene in which a character discovers that someone they know well has been keeping a secret from them. How do they deal with this discovery?

Finished Kala in time for tonight's book club - beautiful writing but think I am now a bit broken. Also think it's the first time I've ever read a book that mentions My Bloody Valentine! #reading #BookSky💙📚

Someone's a bit spiky...

A doorsign that reads "Dr A. Hedgeh" with a sign pinned underneath that goes as follows...

WARNING:
To whoever keeps adding
"og" to my doorsign,
if I catch you,
you are dead.

Dr. A Hedgeh

And some person/legend has, of course, written an "og" at the end of their name
