Six Sentence Sunday – A Stupid Book

Happy October everybody! One of my favorite months of the year.

Edits are finally done! At least on this draft. Still waiting for one of my readers to get back to me before I do one final edit. Then I get to start looking for an agent. I hope sweating bullets is normal for a first book!

I’ve got a good amount written for the sequel as well, which will likely be much gorier than this novel. Not to mention the addition of a few more adult themes. I plan to get a good chunk of it written during NaNo this November too. Still trying to come up with a name for this series!

But enough with my sanity checks, here’s the snippet:

Setup: Fred is about to let Suzie know one of his biggest secrets. He’s understandably nervous, and Suzie isn’t so sure she wants to know.

“What in the world could a stupid book have in it that’s so important?”

“You just can’t understand, Suzie. You wouldn’t believe me even if I told you.”

Suzie stared at him for a moment, wondering if perhaps he had a point. She honestly couldn’t imagine any book that was worth getting a regular beating. Still Fred was her only friend, and for all she knew, she was his.
