The Village
Open to the stars, it appeared easy. Dom studied the snow covered scene, wondering where were the footprints. The snow was to pristine, there was even no evidence of wild life tracks. In Dom’s view wild life only stayed away when evil lurked close by. Dom waved his troupe back into the forest.

Only a brief offering today, as I am struggling with a heavy cold. Today’s very brief flash is a snippet from a novella that continues to develope slowly.
May I wish all my readers a Happy New year.
Happy New Year to you too Michael. Hope you feel better soon….
Happy New Year hope you recover soon Mike. The novella starts on a promising note
Thank you Akshata
Good call by Dom. In my opinion, hunts are ruined when pure evil gets involved haha.
Great hook, I’m interested to see where it goes
I was pleased to hear that the story struck a cord with you, Jacob
The snippet of the story definitely caught my interest!
Happy new year, and I definitely hope you feel better soon.
Thank you very much Tiffany. Happy new year to you.
Great short story! I’m sorry to hear you are still struggling with a cold and I hope you are feeling much better soon!
Thank you PJ, perhaps the cold helped me write better. As I am on the mend now, I hope that my writing does not suffer
I don’t think your writing will suffer and I’m happy to hear you are on the mend!
Thank you PJ
Indeed, I think danger looms.
It certainly does, Danny thank you for the comment
