Once again kudos to Ms Judy. Imagery was easy to see and feel. History can with out a doubt twist and enlighten the mind.
What a sweetie you are! This little story started as a very vivid dream, parts of which were later confirmed by history, lol!
Thank you for your kind words and your vote! I'll be honest, though - I've heard people mention Lovecraft but have never read any of his/her works,or...wait. I might have, a long time ago, but I usually remember the names of great authors. Wow. For a sci-fi buff, I seem to have dropped the ball on this one, lol! Well, now I'm so ashamed of that little fact, I think I'll go slink off to the library and find something by that... Show more
Thank you so much! Your encouraging words are deeply appreciated - you're such a talented writer, so praise from you means a great deal to me, and I'm most grateful. The story came directly from a dream, as did the name of the location. I thought it an odd kind of name, so just for fun I Googled it and found that there is, in fact, a place in Israel with that name, something I honestly didn't know before. Weird. :D Anyway, thanks again!
I could perfectly picture it in my mind. Great descriptions, with perfect imagery and vocabulary.
Also, I just love the name "Agamon"!
Sounds like a delightful vacation spot. Enjoyed your story and voted.
Both this one and "Run" were from dreams. This one was so vivid, I wrote it down as soon as I woke up. The other one came from nightmares - I always know a dream is going to turn bad when in it, I walk into a darkening room, hit the light switch, and nothing happens. So...I based "Run" on that. Put it all together with my overactive imagination, and voila! ;D
Hey Jude, nice mind picture.
This little story started as a vivid dream, which is probably why my descriptions were so clear. I woke up and immediately wrote what I'd been "seeing" in my dream.

I haven't gone back to it yet but like you, I had great curiosity about these people, even though they were a product of my own dreamscape. I gave a bit of though as to how I could expand it, and give this odd society life. I expect I'll do just that one of these days, once I get finished editing and publishing my eight-book series (the first three of which are for sale on Amazon). Then I have a few others I need to revise and republish. Once that's done, I'll finally have time to go back to my earlier works, like this one, and play around with them, add to them, etc.
Thanks for taking the time to read and comment on this short story - it always means a lot when people do that, and I appreciate that you took time out of your day to read it! ')
