Six Sentence Sunday — My Fair Vampire

Welcome to my third “Six Sentence Sunday”. Thank you for visiting and especially for any comments you might leave me.

This six comes from an urban fantasy novel I completed a first draft of late last year, book 1 from The Land Of Enchantment series:  My Fair Vampire.

In this scene, newly created vampire, Dori, and her vampire sire, Donovan, have it out after he reveals the truth about her dead mother.

I advanced on him.  “All this time I thought I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time, that you’d preyed on me at random.  How fucking random could it have been if you knew my mother and knew about me!”  I slapped him across his face, hard, but he showed no sign it affected him any more than the brush of a butterfly’s wings.

“Feel better?” he asked.

“A little.”

I plan at least two more novels in the series:  My Fair Phoenix and My Fair Gargoyle. The world needs more urban fantasy set in the Land of Enchantment, New Mexico!!

Six Sentence Sunday — The P.U.R.E. #2

Welcome to my SECOND “Six Sentence Sunday”. Thank you for visiting and especially for any comments you might leave me.

I thought I’d share a second six from my debut novel, a romantic suspense, The P.U.R.E., to be published by J Taylor Publishing in April 2012. P.U.R.E stands for Previously Undetected Recruiting Error, by the way.

In this scene, our heroine, Gayle has talked her reluctant co-worker, Jon, into doing a little after hours sleuthing with her.  Jon speaks first.

Okay, I’ll go in first, and scope out the place. I’ll call you on your cell if the coast is clear.”

“Why do you think you’re so much less recognizable or noticeable than me?” I cocked my head to the side. Typical man! He wanted to take over even though I came up with the idea in the first place.

If you enjoyed that, I hope you’ll pick up a copy of The P.U.R.E. right after you file your tax return next year, on or around April 16, 2012 when it releases.
