It's Sunday and I'm participating in the Weekend Writing Warriors mini hop! The deal is to post 8 sentences from a writing project, published or unpublished.
This time I'm
offering another small sampling from
The Witchy Wolf and the Wendigo (book2 in the saga) ~ A story about an ancient shaman in a modern world. Inspired by history and a very creepy urban legend. Follow the links below to a free chapter sampling and the local legend that just begged me to write it.
First my 8, then details follow:
Setting the stage: Here Eli remembers what it was like before the whites came and recalls his life as Eluwilussit a well-respected medicine man. He blames Ash for every wrong turn in his life.
What's up Saturday and Sunday?

First my 8, then details follow:
Visually, the rolling hills and valleys were nearly
the same as when his Bear clan lived here, except for some hills cut in two by
the highway. The giant groves were gone and now much smaller trees filled small
pockets where their parent trees once stood. Where animal trails had
crisscrossed the landscape, roads and highways bisected what was left of
re-sprouted oak groves. Open prairie glades where elk and buffalo roamed were
now pesticide- and herbicide-soaked corn and soybean fields.
The
route taken by his people to their yearly hunting, fishing, and foraging
grounds came back to him as though he’d walked it the day before. In the
spring, they’d travel to the maple groves, taping the trees for syrup to make
into sweet nourishing sugar cakes. Then they’d head to the northern lakes to
hunt the great sturgeon. He licked his lips. Setting the stage: Here Eli remembers what it was like before the whites came and recalls his life as Eluwilussit a well-respected medicine man. He blames Ash for every wrong turn in his life.

Magnificent description, Rose. You drew me right into the scene. Thanks for a fine snippet.
ReplyDeleteThank you Charmaine. I'm glad you enjoyed that snippet. :)
DeleteSuch a beautiful description, interwoven between things as they are now and his memories. Really an excellent excerpt!
ReplyDeleteThank you Veronica. The story has many ancient memories woven in.
DeleteTimes change...but I'm glad he still has memories of how it was.
ReplyDeleteEli is stuck in the past and spends too much time contemplating murder in the future. :)
DeleteYour description triggered a pang of spring fever that makes me want to quietly wander in the wilderness. Quietly is the key word in case wolves are afoot.
ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't want to run in to this guy, Pete. He's likely to eat you. ;)
