I know. That’s, like, the weirdest headline ever, right? But I’m serious!
I’ve been playing around with essential oils for almost a year (it was part of my need-to-get-healthier kick). I recently bought Vetiver because I read somewhere that it can help with focus, and lord knows I need to focus on finishing Shades of Allegiance! So I took it out to put on. It didn’t come out of the bottle, really. Don’t know why. Maybe because it’s new? But I got annoyed with trying (I could have taken the lid off or stood there holding it for longer, but I was feeling rushed) and I just swiped the lid across my wrist and grabbed another oil to diffuse.
Then I sat down at my computer to write.
Then I smelled my wrist.
Yowsers! Um, my wrist smells good. Kind of woodsy-ish, and I just couldn’t help but think that this would be what Ash smells when she leans into him. <3 So, yeah. Kind of weird. But kind of awesome too! Now I'm thinking I need to find an essential oil scent for all my characters! I'm sooooo curious to find out what Aren will be! If you're into oils, I'm open to suggestions for scents! And, seriously, guys. You gotta smell the Vetiver. Just a tiny bit. 🙂
I seriously forgot Rykus’ name is RIP Rykus and was like “OMGWTF!? She’s telling us she killed off Rykus?”
Not cool. I was halfway to thinking that you had already done it to Naito and maybe Ash would be a badass woman on a vengeance quest. Then I remembered, I’m good now.
lol Ohmygosh! That’s so funny. Sorry for the moment of panic! hehe
I think Arens scent is leather and hint of cinnamon or the way it smells in the forest after it rains in the summer…
Let be that description!
