WIP, reframed as poetry
From Sabertooth Dawn
The mountains
were beautiful enough
to break my heart,
even if they weren't
on Earth.
Especially
because they weren't
on Earth.

I've loved this story since I began writing it back in 1995 or so. Life intervened, it got set aside, but kept calling to me, like those mountains.
Sometimes, we have to set aside a story we love because it isn't working. Sometimes, we have to return to a story because we need to finish it.
