Mathilda Mongoose decided that it was time for her sons to go out into the world and make their own fortunes. After all, Mathilda was now a widow. Her husband, Maurice Mongoose, had only recently met with a most unfortunate accident. It had seemed so easy to get the young chickens from inside the cage. What Maurice did not know is that it was a trap set to catch him. Poor Maurice! That had been the end of him.

Operation
In this author's opinion, the writing of a novel has to be one of the most tedious, lonely endeavors that any person can attempt, and to accomplish this task is by anyone's standards an achievement. Whether it is a great achievement remains to be seen, but at that final moment when the last few words are typed, "greatness" doesn't seem to matter. At that point it is more a sigh of relief combined with a moment of disbelief.
