The West

Just finished reading To Tame A Land by Louis L'Amour the other day. If you have any love for the Old West then you have to read L'amour. He has a way of bringing the time alive in his stories in an unforgiving landscape, the dreams of a good man just trying to get by or the reluctance of a gunfighter to leave one more man dead by his gun. He writes like he's an invisible chronicler of the events or has lived them himself. Something tells me it's closer to the truth to say the later.

On an unrelated note. I'm still trying to figure out a way to post some of the proposal for The Ghoul or pages of my novel in progress. I probably won't post any of the novel until the first draft is finished, but The Ghoul is a different matter. Stay tuned.
