Welcome
to another Six Sentence Sunday! Some happy time news today, my book has been
given a release date and a new title. 1st of October and ‘Flesh’,
respectively. This one is my novel length tale of life after the Zombie
apocalypse as opposed to the short and novella I’ve been sharing with you. You
can find the first chapter on the tab just above if you’d like a taste. One
day I’ll get back to writing about things non-zombie, but that day is not
today.
So, back
to the standoff from last week as our hero and heroine face each other down
the length of their guns. She just commented that it looked like they had a failure to communicate...
“I’d say it was
closer to a Mexican standoff.” A neatly trimmed beard covered half his face
making reading him a problem. He was tall, well built; she couldn’t have over-powered
him in days of yore. Today it was right out.
No way was she
putting down the gun.
“Those don’t tend
to end well in movies,” she said.
Ah, those pesky zombies! Great six!
ReplyDeleteIf he's talking back it means he's not a zombie right? :-)
ReplyDeleteMaybe she's met her match, assuming he isn't a zombie.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting, congratulations lovely lady! May you be happy with all the words you are writing and I look forward to reading the entirety.
ReplyDeleteLove Mexican standoffs. Great conflict.
ReplyDeleteLike her thought process. And yay beard!
ReplyDeleteWooHoo on the release date! I missed last week. Went back to catch up. And...wow! I love the snappy dialogue and the tension here. Plus humor. That's a three-way win! Well done, Kylie!!!! (Okay, my exclamation key is stuck! LOL)
ReplyDeleteLOL! Love the humor and tension here. Congrats on your upcoming release!
ReplyDeleteIn that situation, I wouldn't put my gun down either. :-/
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't put the gun down, either, and I love the dialogue!
ReplyDeleteToo true! These two seem well matched . . . :)
