Sorry I’m late, Snippetteers — it’s before midnight somewhere, right? Work on Back Door into Purgatory has been terribly slow — so much so that I’m reluctant to post on a weekly basis, because it reminds me how little I’ve actually gotten written during the week. But I’d like to share a bit of my most recent writing. Can’t give you any background — that would be a spoiler — but I hope you enjoy!

Something heavy jumped onto Tiernan’s abdomen, jolting him out of restless sleep. He manifested a knife from his crystal hand even before he was fully awake; he’d had to kill too many nocturnal predators to count during his wanderings. Waiting, even waiting for his eyes to open, was a luxury he rarely had under those circumstances.

Nothing was trying to kill him yet, though. And whatever was crouched on his bladder was too damned small to feel so heavy.

“Are you going to kill me, or just wait there until I piss myself?”
