Fox On Ice Skates Excerpt 2 (Book) - 7/12/2018 12:48:46 PM
Sorry, but Author's Den seems to have associated the wrong image with this excerpt from your work. The image shown is on the cover of one of my own books. Go figure, eh?
Interesting reading, however, and good construction. I enjoyed reading this excerpt, albeit accidentally. Cheers!

I thought this Excerpt of The Goatfooted Children was pretty wonderful writing. It illustrates with heart, and Genuine insight, a struggle that is often seen, and often discarded or dismissed. I would love to read the rest of the book.

Norris' Laws for Bodies Falling (Short Story) - 9/1/2010 6:34:37 AM
It was not me in the Jag, but it was me on an R75 one winter evening on the Suitland Parkway. I was turning wrenches at Cycle City, and a customer complained about a high speed wobble. I made some adjustments and took it for a spin where I could open it up, southbound on the Parkway.
Rush hour traffic was thick heading north, an endless stream of headlights coming at me up the two lane. Nothing ahead in my lane, however. So I laid out on the tank and put my left arm back, to reduce drag, and ran it up to 120. Steady as a rock.
Suddenly, a north bound pair of headlights pulled out to pass. Some impulse from the most primitive depth of my brain caused me to twitch the bars, and I sailed off--blinded by the headlights--to the right.
An instant later I touched down on some grass, upright and whole. Too treacherous to brake hard. It was as black as three feet up a bull's ass, as I coasted to a stop.
I went back the next day and found my tracks, which stopped at the edge of a ravine. I have no idea how far I traveled through the air. But my heart is pounding as I write this.

"...we can tell people the truth..." "...Yeah? Well, most of ‘em couldn’t tell the difference, could they?..." we can summon that no matter how we take things, today, no one will see the difference.
A Coast Guard kind of vignette to educate us landlubbers ignoramus.

Interesting. I would have liked to know at what ages the other men died also. Was Chester ever alive so he could die? I'd say yes, he was. Love it. Liz
