Hello
all. Welcome to Weekend Writing
Warriors, a weekly bloghop. If you're doing Nano, yay you! I'm not, but I'm cheering you on. :-)
Each week, participants sign up HERE at wewriwa.com, then post 8 to 10 sentences of their work, published or unpublished, to go live between noon, Saturday, and 9:00 AM Sunday EST. Then we visit each other and read, comment, critique, encourage--all those things that do a solitary writer's heart good.

heads. It was almost like they were in the presence of a god. They kept saying the
word "A’Niaz”.
She smiled, but
didn't let down her guard. Their speechless communication came through loud and clear; they
needed each other to survive.
Someone's stomach growled. The rumbling could have belonged to anyone in the group; they were all desperate for food and water. And everyone knew that desperate people were not to be
trusted.
