If it got much colder, she was going to need to get serious about starting a fire.  The problem was that fire meant smoke.  Smoke meant attention and attention meant gunfire.  Gunfire meant noise.  Noise meant more attention, and so it went.  As it was, she’d keep as warm as she could without it.  TheContinue reading “Breather”

There Be Tigers

This is a dusty sort of story.  It’s about a real place somewhere in Eastern Oregon.  It’s true when it needs to be and that’s what matters, dear readers.  It has holes in it.  What of it?  It’s a rendition, rambling and purposeless.  It is not a warning.  Too late for that.  It’s a hypothesis,Continue reading “There Be Tigers”
