My first page has a frontispeiece, of mad Riss and silly Tavi and stout old Ghaddi dancing, and an epigram-- THE epigram- from Federico Calboli, which somehow sets the mood for the whole book, for me. Other photos will simply have a separate folder, but I thought that the mysterious hounds, dancing in black and white, deserved a special place of their own. Let us see if I can reproduce the effect here...

The Hounds of Heaven
"Stuff is eaten by dogs, broken by family and friends,
sanded down by the wind, frozen by the mountains, lost by the prairie, burnt
off by the sun, washed away by the rain. So you are left with dogs, family,
friends, sun, rain, wind, prairie and mountains. What more do you want?"
--Federico Calboli

Outstanding-can't wait to read it.
What-tha? 40-frikkin' thousand words? I couldn't even SPEAK that many words if I tried in that amount of time! So, has this secret guvmint operation given you super powers or something? Regardless, I am looking so forward to this book! Hope the dang editors don't mess with it--how many great stories/expressions have been lost forever because of nit-picky editors more concerned with the moron general public? Probably about 40-frikkin' thousand or so......L.B.
