<p><i>Things seem to have settled down a bit, and I’ll go with <a href="http://www.wewriwa.com/" target="_blank">Weekend Writing Warriors</a> as a regular Sunday blog. That allows an 8 sentence upper limit, which is what I’ll normally post. The <a href="http://www.skyewarren.com/blog/" target="_blank">Unofficial Six Sentence Grou</a>p will be once a month, the first Sunday of every month, with the 6 sentence limit, so each first Sunday I’ll post 6 sentences and sign up for both. I’ll probably be late getting the link on the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/401643826588474/" target="_blank">facebook page</a> unless I remember to do it just after midnight – I’m about as far west as you can get in the US.</i></p>
<p><i>We’re still in War’s End, and Ginger has just finished using the reader to find out what Maungs eat.</i></p>

The reader had a small keypad, and Audi fussed with it until the screen showed a complex pattern—mostly green and blue, with touches of gold. Then she held the screen where the creature could see it.</p>
<p>The Maung immediately flashed the same colors and pattern over its body.</p>
<p>“Friend—friend,” Audi muttered. “At least I think so. Let me try ‘stay with us’ next.” She worked again with the keypad, and showed a new pattern to the alien.</p>
<p><em>If you&#8217;ve read any of my books, I&#8217;d really appreciate reviews. My Amazon and Barnes and Noble pages look awfully bare.</em></p>
