That was a children's story though, yours is sharper, which is good!

(I wanted a drabble, but there was too much good stuff to cut this down to 100 words).<br /><br />@Sonia, growing up in the midwest of the US, I find deserts entirely too dry, but they have a beauty too and I find they attract my writing eye.<br /><br />@JohnW, I didn't intentionally plan to mislead you; the klämdagar gave me an in to this world and I had to follow where it led.AidanFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09876041003278004627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879556472347736809.post-9559447146625086042011-06-03T13:52:28.967-07:002011-06-03T13:52:28.967-07:00Definitely the most evocative of your stories that...Definitely the most evocative of your stories that I've read, Aidan. So suggestive that is managed to entirely mislead me with the mash-up of Swedish and Middle Eastern elements. Thought it would go after anti-Islamic politics. In very little space it turned out to be a very different piece.John Wiswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07416044628686736927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879556472347736809.post-12161755485265403622011-06-03T11:50:36.881-07:002011-06-03T11:50:36.881-07:00I like desert settings and I like the arabic/urdu ...I like desert settings and I like the arabic/urdu thing in the title.

You explode outwards from ...Argh! Such a tease! ;D<br /><br />You explode outwards from the detail of the dagger to scant, evocative details of the wider world. Their future seems pretty bleak...<br /><br />Loved this. =)John Xerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17492709629314280633noreply@blogger.com
