For my aunt...

This post is mostly for my aunt, Jessica.  I never would be as close to her as I am if she didn't virtually stalk me.  So, thank you.  I appreciate it, in an odd way.

And... just for you...  I'm going to include the first page of my book on here... Given, it's a VERY rough draft... And it's already formatted how I want it to be, so it's a short first page... But, I'm sure you'll let me know what you think. ;-)




    The rain was coming down like the heavens were pouring a never-ending pitcher of water on my head, but I barely noticed.  I knew it was well after midnight, and that the buses had stopped running.  Nevertheless, here I was, sitting on the bench, waiting with everything I had to my name, which consisted of my clutch, my shoes, and my little black dress.  I didn’t even have a coat.  I only knew that I had to leave.  I couldn’t stay here.  Not after what happened.
    “Hello there, are you alright?” A British man’s voice pierced through my sobs.  My head was down because I was crying, and with the sound of the rain, I didn’t hear him approach.  In one swift movement, I had out my pepper spray and was on my feet, ready to defend myself.



Merry Christmas!  Enjoy Aunt Jessica!!!
