Six Sentence Sunday...

Welcome to another Six Sentence Sunday. This week a snippet featuring that awkward moment when you're sitting half naked on your hero's lap and he's actually dithering over the wisdom of them getting to know one another in the biblical sense. Practicality has no place when hormones surge. Fortunately our heroine knows this and acts accordingly, bless her.

I've decided to pop this one on Smashwords later this month, give self-publishing a go with some short stories. Any sage words of advice regarding the process would be gratefully received.

Have a great Sunday and thanks for your feedback!



She slapped a hand over his mouth, effectively silencing him. “Do you want to have sex with me or not?”

The hand lifted and he was permitted to speak. “I think casual sex between us could be a mistake if you’re going to stay.”

“Not the answer I was after, Aiden.”

And then she kissed him, hard.

    Make sure the mss is squeaky clean for formatting before you upload. (esp. no section breaks). Read the Smashwords formatting document before you try and be prepared to be patient. :)

    Nice snippet.

    Ah, good for her. She knows what she wants and puts it out there. That's a heroine I can get into.

    Ooooh. I like her! She's a keeper for sure. Haven't done the Smashwords thing yet. I went KDP Select so I have 90 days to figure out the formatting for other venues. As said above, be sure to read the guides before you start and keep a copy that hasn't been altered just in case you need to start over. Best of luck with it!
