Alyssa Goodnight http://alyssagoodnight.blogspot.com/ tagged me to complete the quasi-book/writing-related challenge described below, so here goes:
Having calmed considerably, Olm pulled his truck over to the side of the road and stared out at the bayou that ran parallel to the road. Down those murky waters, through the sloughs and channels, across the flats, down into the darkest parts of the Atchafalaya, where the cypress trees grew so thick their branches seemed conjoined, sat his two aces -- in the hole. He considered the wild game, snakes, and alligators that populated the swamp. There was always the chance the children might wind up as a meal before the ceremony time. [From friend Deborah LeBlanc's just- released book, Water Witch, Dorchester Publishing.]
The rules are as follows: Grab the nearest book. Open the book to page 56. Find the fifth sentence. Post the text of the next two to five sentences in your journal/blog along with these instructions. Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the closest. Tag five other people to do the same.
Hmm, who am I gonna tag from randomly scrolling through my Rockin' Blog roll?
Travis 
Joanne 
Terri 
Jim (Suldog)

Now, wasn't that more fun than a barrel of monkeys? And what are YOU reading right now?
