Two For Eternity - 10,000 BC

I wanted to establish that my two main characters had been around since the beginning of human kind so I put them in a scene in Central Africa in 10,000 B.C. This chapter of the book was mostly guess work and speculation since not much is known about this time. I chose this area and time period since it is generally established that this was the start of homo sapien in this planet. Other than that, there wasn’t much to go off of. When I initially wrote this scene, I did it without dialogue, because I wasn’t sure that people would have had spoken language back in this time period. Then I watched the movie 10,000 B.C. (which was an abysmal piece of garbage). Since they used dialogue, I figured, what the hell, I’ll use dialogue as well. The scene turned out much better this way. Because I had so little information to work off of, this was the most challenging chapter in my book, but I hope the readers like it. Find out if it works for you on November 1st, when Two For Eternity is available for sale.
