What comes next? 2. a tease from Chapter One.

Since it cleared one pass of Editing (there will be many more before it is done), I feel I'm comfortable with letting this go up. If you don't know what the hell LDG is talking about here, *LOOK HERE FIRST* please. That's the first announcement on what's in-process. Status on that is: wrapping Chapter Three for handoff to the Editor today.

and now, your blog item for today. This is the introductory paragraph from Chapter One of the new-novel. Yes, novel.


Western Sahara always made two sharp first impressions on a visitor. The emptiness, even around the useful triangle part of the region, was palpable. Then there was the wind, which only slackened at times, seemingly never ceasing. When that impression was coupled with the discomfort of several days moving from place to place in the back of a five-ton truck, there wasn’t much good to say about it. Nature was full of beauty in the details, but that was lost when seen through sand goggles, heard and smelled through the full head wrap needed to endure a ride in the wind.
 
Enjoy!
