A young soldier comes back from a campaign and finds himself prospecting a claim -- a small territory in a dead city where he has the right to search for ancient technology, or possibly magic. What is he looking for, and how did he come to possess the claim? This is first draft copy -- raw words, posted daily, as I write them. Tell me what you think! THE CLAIM is projected to be done in mid-January, 2015. If you're interested in process notes and essays about the writing, they're posted in "THE CLAIM: DEVELOPMENT DIARIES"; or you can check out my blog, linked in my profile.
