Summary
Author's Notes
Both the title and Artemisia's name (genus of Wormwood) are a nod to Wormwood from The Screwtape Letters, which was my first thought when epistolary stories came up. I named the other characters via the connection to absinthe. Nella is from pimpinella, the genus of anise, though I wouldn't give her anything that awful as an actual name. Flora is short for Florence, which is a common fennel cultivar.
