An extract from a 5000 word short story I’m working on –
my third for the month and still ahead of schedule. Here’s hoping it stays that

Love it! Nice dialogue and good emotion.
Good conflict and emotion!
thanks! there's so much more going on here than I could possibly show in six sentences so I had to settle for this sliver.
Thanks! I wish I could have shown what's really going on.
