teacher and aspiring writer, here are some excerpts...

WRITING

The main sail ripples noisily behind me and I turn to watch it. A particularly strong wind rises and I see Menzobbaraca eye his infernal compass once more. I sense an excitement coming from him. I can taste it in the air, almost as if he sweats anticipation itself. We may soon be calling to port once more. Watching the filament websails, great silver nets of vast expanse toiling in the wind, I remember the feel of air on my neck. This wind that drives our ship, it is not a wind that can be felt, not by myself nor any of the crew. It drives us through this abyssal void, caught by the ancient magic of the websails. but to us this everlasting night is as still as if there were no wind at all. It is one of the few things I still miss about my former life, the wind. I have been sailing on this ship for a long time now, I think, and rarely have the opportunity to feel such things.
