Whew...there, done. You know I hate to do this because half the time I do forget, and end up having to go back to an active story and post this warning, if I remember at all. Seriously, writing a story is such a deeply personal experience, and sharing it with strangers (and friends), is horribly intimidating. Let's all respect each other here, and just enjoy.

Now...whose ready for this? I know I've been off grid for a while, my life got shaken up a bit and stirred around, but I'm settling to earth again, and am editing something completely new. Not ready to post that here yet, but please be patient! Instead, lets keep riding west with Eureka Rivers.

Eureka - a beloved character making her debut appearance in The Whole Truth short story- has her own full length novel.

What do you get when you shoot a person in the back, steal their horse and rifle, leaving them for dead? Stakes in a card game where only the winner walks away alive. When Eureka Rivers left El Paso, she was heading for home, minding her own business, with no idea that trouble might dog her heels. Well, in rough, isolated country, you learn quick or die hard, and though Eureka might be young, she was no pilgrim.

Daughter of Yance Rivers, granddaughter of Noah Rivers, kin to gunslingers like Red, Emmett, Lobo, Virgil and Rin, she had the blood of warriors running thick in her veins. Raised in hills of the Springfield Plateau, she was a peaceable sort, not as quick to temper as her Boston raised cousins. But when the chips are down, lead starts flying, and greedy strangers come hunting her scalp, this soft spoken Rivers' girl is going to cut loose a pack of trouble, and rain hurt down on them who thought she'd be an easy kill.
