Chapter 1
The HAPPY Ending
One day, in the month of August, my little sister felt rumbling. I was scared at first, then I felt a struck of joy and fright. It was the train. Coming back from Iraq.I ran to the train station. Amy and I waited for Papa. Then, all at once, th soilders came out. Mr. Lum, Papa, Mr. Fragle, and a bunch of other black men. All exited, Amy and I asked," Did you win?"

sounds like an amazing story, Nor. I can't wait to read more. Question: does anybody ever really win a war, do you think? I also like that you described the feeling as joy and fright all at once. It's interesting when opposite feelings exist together..........
AHA! I'm very glad to have another writer in the family. You have that writer's eye/soul/spark, Nora.
I like this excerpt a lot and would love to see more. Go go go!
Oooh! I didn't know you had posted an excerpt!
Let me know when you post more...I want to know what happens next. :D
Yeah Nora, I'd love to hear more of your story.
