After a silent, bumpy journey along the coast road,
Assunta finally pulled up the pathway to a graceless and
stolid building overlooking the sea. Isaac took a deep breath
and gazed around. The air was perfumed with the scent of pines
and wild roses and salt air. He congratulated himself
on his good fortune.

I genuinely cherish the thoughts and insights of my readers, and I wholeheartedly welcome your engagement. However, to foster a truly constructive dialogue, I’ll be keeping a careful eye on the comments section. This means I’ll be moderating to weed out any spammy detritus, overly harsh critiques, or contributions that don’t add anything meaningful to the conversation. Think of it as my little corner of the internet—a space where everyone can share their perspectives without the noise. Let’s make this a place where ideas can flourish and grow, rather than wither away in the shadows of irrelevance.
