Rules:
For those of you new to this game, here's how it works:
1) It's done on a day that includes "-day" as the last three letters.
2) You pick a bit of text in keeping w the request. (Today it will be page 123)
3) You share.
4) You tell us what you like abt it.
5) We all get to read.
6) There's a tendency of others to reply to each other. (I like this, btw.)
THE REQUEST: Again, the request this time is "page 123" . . . Go there in one of your manuscripts. Start at the first full sentence, and give us a short excerpt.
My Excerpt:
I thought about doing one from Into the Reach or Departure, since those are still hard to track down, and I know not everyone has read them. But my desire to show something new won, so this is a bit from p. 123 of the (still unedited) manuscript for Regaining Home.

What I like about it:
Writing an all-out war was a new thing for me, an undertaking that was much bigger than I realized it would be. So in order to handle something that *big,* I tried to capture little moments of it that would show the scope, but also make it personal. I think it worked.
Your turn
