The short story by the same name appeared in another one of my earlier novels. It served as both a filler and an insight to the writer that the book centered around. From the earliest concept of a book about mere survival it grew into an unusual love story. No longer was it merely a fluff piece of humor to one of indepth growth and actually a love story on several different flevels. Of course the length of the work grew considerably as much of the original was removed and a much deeper tale of survival emerged. Now it is a work worthy to stand on its own.
