Jon

Welcome to Weekend Writing Warriors! This is the successor to Six Sentence Sunday.

As mentioned before, I have a new release coming out around April 30th called Purely Relative (The P.U.R.E., #1.5). I revealed the cover on February 28th. Last week’s eight featured sentences taken from The P.U.R.E. that were the genesis for my latest addition to Gayle’s adventures.

Here are the first eight sentences of Purely Relative told in Gayle’s POV:

Most people think meeting your boyfriend’s family is a hallmark of commitment. I’d have rather been committed than go to the Cripps’ for a home-cooked Thanksgiving meal. Oh, I loved a gluttonous turkey feast as much as anyone. The meal wasn’t the problem. Wondering how much Jon’s sister, Jenny, had shared about the night she met me kept me on a steady diet of fingernails and nerves.

Catching me and her little brother going at it in her guest bedroom probably wasn’t the best way for him to announce he’d traded in his longtime family friend/fiancée for some short blonde chick with a fat ass. I didn’t steal him from Thalia. He told me I didn’t.

Ooh…I think we can expect a little tension at that family get-together!

Weekend Writing Warriors: If he only knew, eh? #8Sunday

Welcome to my first official Weekend Writing Warriors post! This is the successor to Six Sentence Sunday.

I have a new release coming out around April 30th called Purely Relative (The P.U.R.E., #1.5). This will be my very first venture into self-publishing. Eek!! More on this in the days ahead.

Purely Relative takes place between the next to last and last chapters of The P.U.R.E. Crazy, I know. In hindsight, I should have called the last chapter an epilogue, but honestly, I never thought I’d write a sequel to The P.U.R.E. Never say never. Sooo… to introduce Purely Relative, I’ll be lifting a quote from The P.U.R.E. which will be my eight sentences for WeWriWa. Gayle speaks first then Jon:

“Charlie shared the whole poop with you, did he?”

“Here, read for yourself.” He handed me the note.

Hey buddy! How’s DC? Has Gayle said ‘yes’ yet?

I paused to wink at Jon. “If he only knew, eh?”
