[Sample] Where the Road Simply Stops

A sample story: the tarmac ends, the dunes begin, and the silence is total.

The road ends without ceremony. One moment asphalt, the next an ocean of sand that has no interest in you at all.

We walked out at dusk until the camp was a rumour behind us. The dunes hold heat like a plate. At night the sky was so loud with stars it felt impolite to speak.

This is placeholder sample content for the journal.

Reflections

Silence is not empty. It is simply unhurried.
