Hi Readers:
I can't believe that we are nearing the end of October. I hope you are enjoying the fall. On this Sunday, I hope you will also enjoy this small sample from my novel St. Anne's Day, which can be purchased from Amazon, the Kindle store, Barnes & Noble Nook Store and Smashwords.
This is the scene when Gerry's current girlfriend, Claudia, returns from a business trip, and she brings Gerry's mother, Peg, a gift. As you may detect from the passage, Peg does not like Claudia.
Peg examined the box. “Honey,” she said, scowling at Claudia, “you shouldn’t waste your money on expensive wrapping paper. If you ever marry Gerry, you’ll have to learn to cut corners. He’s not an architect anymore, and even though he still likes to put on the dog, barkeepers aren’t millionaires you know.”
Peg examined the box. “Honey,” she said, scowling at Claudia, “you shouldn’t waste your money on expensive wrapping paper. If you ever marry Gerry, you’ll have to learn to cut corners. He’s not an architect anymore, and even though he still likes to put on the dog, barkeepers aren’t millionaires you know.”
Claudia pulled her lips into a sour smile. “You were worth the extra expense.”
Enjoy!
