Doing some short writing about a summer I spent in Virginia and dug up these photos. Summer 2008. Muggy, lightning bugs at dusk, thunderstorms every day at four. Spent most of the time walking through the woods and swimming at the secret river beach I discovered and writing the first chapters of the book I’m editing now. The story is in this novella but here’s what it looked like… the woods, the tree over the tidal marsh, and the train yard.
