I shivered at the sight of the snake's thick, twisting trail. I did so like your companion, a gentle soul protecting you.

Just good writing from anyone's point of view in terms of craft, in terms of showing and varying dialogue and scene setting. <BR/><BR/>But, also fantastic in the 3rd goal of Peace Corps of "bringing the world back home." Chills! This is so needed...communication across cultures and communication of other cultures to our home culture.<BR/><BR/>Well done, indeed. Thanks for sharing.<BR/><BR/>Janet Riehl<BR/>www.riehlife.comJanet Grace Riehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03921731725804450430noreply@blogger.com
