THE WILD WIND | Chapter 10

Sarah meets a boy named Richie at the rodeo as a teen. The couple falls in love on horseback under the stars, but Richie is soon sent off to WWI, but not before proposing to Sarah, sliding a horseshoe nail ring upon her finger. A numbered collection of love letters to Richie illustrates her growing superstitious obsession as Richie’s shell-shocked mind gradually appears to present itself. Sarah eventually discovers she is pregnant with JUNIOR and grows worried as Richie fails to acknowledge a son born in his absence in dissonant, shaky-handed letters.

Dedicated to Dr. George Anthony Zeller (1858-1938 ), whose vision and journals inspired this tale.
