“The next morning, flat calm.”
WOW. The flat steel of this chapter opener.
I love when a book stops me dead. When it shakes me awake with a single sentence.

I have no plans for a long, satisfying drive but I can dream and hope. In the meantime, I wrote 1.3k words in the early morning and then took a 15-min drive down my favorite stretch of road as a reward. Driving is for me assaying with a car instead of a pen.
