Progress Report, in which I keep searching

And we’re 5K further along with "From Earth I Have Arisen."  See?

I’ve also moved the goalposts again.  Did you notice?  Yeah, 30K was probably a tad optimistic of me.

So I drive on, still in search of my ending.  If you see it, please let me know.

Snippet time:

Wayne and Esteban emerged from their hiding places. Robin brought the truck to a skidding halt in front of the trailer. Jaime leapt out. He, Wayne, and Esteban hurried to hitch up the trailer. The young girl, quiet and still, remained in the front seat with Robin. The cab would be uncomfortably crowded as they made their getaway, Wayne knew, but there was nothing for it.

They had just locked down the trailer hitch when Wayne sighted another dust cloud.

The blue trucks topped a rise and hurtled toward them, two abreast down the dirt road.

Jaime saw them and swore under his breath. Robin called from the cab: "Come on! Hurry!"

Wayne’s gaze met Esteban’s. Wayne shook his head. "We can’t outrun them. Not towing the trailer."

"No." Esteban got out his rifle again.

 

No updates for Write Club.

And the search continues . . .
