Six Sentence Sunday!!! This is taken from a scene in a YA paranormal I will write as soon as I polish the current WIP...it's dark, though. My sixteen year-old heroine is a survivor of a family tragedy...
Well, leaving you on that cherry note:)...go check out some of the other Six Sentence Sunday entries - always good reading.Mom was way prettier than I’d ever be, and she had to be close to thirty-five then. Me, I was fifteen and a sophomore at Our Lady of Stick Up Your Ass.
Damn. I thought I’d be able to get through this part without getting pissed about school. I mean, you’d think that since it was the day my mom died I’d remember her more than anything else, but nope, I remember everything about that morning. Every second, every word, sound, smell, all of it, except for the most important part—the moment she and my kid brother were killed.
Ouch, this is going to be painful to hear, I can tell. Thanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteVoice with a capital V, and she had me at Our Lady of ... because I went to Catholic school too, and I can just guess. :) It makes me want to know more of the story.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, nice balance between your visuals ('eye candy') and the text.
