Beyond the City and Cresting the Burning Burb

Samuel, Lou, Dan and Ciss get a ride out of the city, their hovel decimated by the zombies and the geemo chihuahuas (can’t believe I finally spelled that right). “The troll” makes another appearance and Samuel’s secret weapon saves the day (or night, as it was).  Had a lot more dialog was in my mind which may get back into the story, but we’re in the “vomit onto the keyboard” phase, which is the longest hurl I’ve ever had.  We may reach 50,000 words on this one, but that’s not really the point: the point is telling the story.

Been away from writing here with business on other blogs, it felt good to get back to writing for an hour.  Now it’s time to do battle with the ailing sump-pump – digging up the line and finding out where it failed.  Hoping for coolish weather as I grab my shovel.
