Finished... now back to "the train"

Well kids, my short story for the most recent Aphelion challenge is finished (I think).  That's right, the "haunted mineshaft" a.k.a. "Jake's Mountain" is a done deal.

The word limit was 2,000 words and I stopped right on word 1,995.  Actually had to go back and edit some things down from 2,002 at one point, but anyway...

What does that mean for my small but devoted crowd of loyal readers?  Well, it means a short wait until the story's posted on the site for voting.  Sorry.

But it also means that I've finished the last of my time sensitive work for the moment.  Which implies another interesting bit of just-between-us-kids information....  It's time to get back to the "ghost train".

So with that in mind, here's some train-writing music:

   Ryan Adams and the Cardinals - Cold Roses

      Elvis Costello - Kojak Variety and National Ransom

         Bob Dylan - Nashville Skyline         

      Jamey Johnson - The Lonesome Song

   Lyle Lovett - The Road to Ensenada (yes!), My Baby Don't Tolerate and It's Not Big, It's Large

      Son Volt - The Search and Honky Tonk

         Wilco - Being There, Summerteeth and Sky Blue Sky

      Neil Young - Everybody Knows This is Nowhere and Prairie Wind

Enjoy!
