Welcome to another Sunday
with Weekend Writing Warriors.
Here, writers in different genres showcase their stories with 8-10 sentences.
Join the fun and read our snippets.
Today,
I’m continuing the scene from my new release: Starrella Falls, Book 2 in the Secret Supers. You can read the
first chapters HERE.
Background: Toby and Estelle left the pub by the
rear exit and the man Croaker attacks Estelle.

read last weeks’ snippet here: http://auroraspringer.blogspot.com/2016/08/poisonous-croaker-snippet-from.html
The final sentence was: He dropped the dart, cried a Zarnoth curse and lunged at Estelle.
Racing across the parking lot, Toby
grabbed Croaker’s arm and swung him round. In a blur of motion, a second dart
shone in Croaker’s hand. Toby punched his fist into Croaker’s chin.
Croaker crumpled. Catching him
under the arms, Toby eased him to the ground.
Brakes squealed and a man yelled,
“Hey!” Mark Copper jumped out of his white sedan and Diane slid out of the
passenger side. “What’s going on?” Mark called.
Straightening and gazing at Mark,
Toby drawled, “It’s that guy who’s wanted for murder.”
“What guy?” Mark strode over and
stared at the body.

Oh, new characters in this situation. I hope they don't interfere. Have fun at the conference!
ReplyDeleteNew characters in this scene but not new in the series. Diane is Estelle's best friend.
