This is a different kind of Science Fiction story. We were sitting around talking at work about what we watched on Saturday morning when were kids. For some of them it was cartoons. For others and me it was the old B westerns. A friend suggests that I should write a western. I decided why not. Therefore, I wrote Dead Oak Flats. It is a story of a rancher and his friend, a miner, who try to make a go of it on their cattle ranch. It is located on a new planet that is just being settled with a local inhabitant who is not happy about them being there. Of course, there are horses and cattle and bad guys who what to take their mine and ranch away. When I finished I gave it to my friend. He seemed to like it. I hope you will too.
