Great news!

Yes, I realized I could make it a bit less passive....can't have that, you know.

It's about a girl who just keeps taking her husband back....after she finds out that he's an imposter....after she finds out he used to be a woman (shapechanger)....after he's dead....sort of...

That actually sounds passive, and if you think of an agrarian society....she probably wouldn't be out of the norm.

Not if she faces a lot of opposition from neighbors or other people who suspect that Something's Not Right, though.

That's not it, though. The conflict is mostly internal, which just doesn't sell.

Well, if you want a test reader...

I'm playing with it right now. Perhaps later this week?

It's about 6k, so not too long.

No problem.
