Helen isn’t dead and she has woken to silence.OR

Summary
With her evening suddenly wide open, Helen turns to her computer. She types deep into the night. The trancelike state brings her back to intense journaling sessions she had when she was juggling her writing, acting gigs, the catering service, the never-ending disappointment brought by the two former, and the frustration born out of sharing a room with Madeline Ashton. Writing was her only lifeline.
And Madeline. Always Madeline.
Madeline haunts her.OR
Helen and Ernest don't go to that fateful dinner with Madeline and get married on April 10th. Madeline haunts the narrative.
