Scryer's Gulch, Episode 13 is up!

Messages:

The wretched Rabbit woke up at dawn inside the wire cage, naked and shivering. "John?" he called weakly.

"Sheriff's asleepin," said Aloysius. "Hey! Runnels! Wake up! Yer brother's lost his fur!"

John scrambled up from his cot, instantly awake. "Sorry, Rab, sorry! I'm coming." He opened the latch on the cage and helped Rabbit to stand; he wrapped his brother in the still-warm blanket from the cot. "Are you all right?"

"Did I scratch or bite?" said Rabbit. "I'm so afraid I'm going to bite you some day, Johnny--if I ever brought this on you, I'd throw myself in the river!"

"Don't talk about that now," said John. "Are you hungry?"

"Starving!" said Rabbit, sucking on a tooth. "Dang it, I always get clover stuck between my teeth."

In related news, one of my readers got her paperback copy of episodes 1-10 and says: "You're right, it is handsome." Entertaining and beautiful, folks, just like every one of you. ;)
