Wow, I read this a while back, had so much going on I did not have presence of mind to respond. This story is very hot and menacing.

Sewing equipment? Yikes.

I am not a nit picker, not enough schoolin for that (yet), but I loved the feel of this piece. I have been somewhere in the Black Rock Desert, and you did a good job capturing the heat of the setting. The memory of dust in places dust should not go is inspiring me to write something rather horrifying...

Nice story. Downright freakin' creepy.

Welcome to the club.
