@exlarson Safe travels! This has inspired a short story for me about what it may have been like to be the final one alive in the dark (a little more horrific than my usual writing fare but for whatever reason it’s embedded itself!) Thanks again and looking forward to reading other works!
@exlarson it was more of the anecdotal retelling from a seaman who was there when the hatch was opened. I will certainly check out those source notes and possibly bother you again in June! lol (3)
@MichaelVitaleJr Which southern warships are you referring to? Are you thinking of Union ships associated with potential relief missions? Send me a page number.
@kaltizer503 Have you checked my source notes? I’m in Paris for a month—poor me—and don’t have access to my books or files. Dead Wake is three books ago so bear with me. Remind me in a DM in the first week of June?
I'll be speaking this morning in Yakima, WA, at the Capitol Theater, for the annual Yakima Town Hall. My hosts last night at the lovely Freehand Cellars Winery made some excellent cookies. (Yes, that's a cookie, roughly the size of a Fig Newton. And really good!)
Whether on foot or on hooves, our officers are always ready.
After someone stole a purse near West 72nd Street, our Mounted officer & his horse, Kelly, kept on her trail.
Galloping down the street & with the help of a witness, they recovered the purse & apprehended the suspect.
Today’s the day! My most personal book—the one that matters most to me—is out in paperback. A labor of love. I worried it would bring sadness, but it’s brought joy instead. It means so much to share stories of the 1960s—my late husband, and the activism and hope of that decade.
