I think I still owe some comments from last week. Sigh. It’s the last month of the semester which always turns into insanity and Camp Nano starts today! I will be working on this story for it (in part, I have two projects).
I’m sticking with These Haunted Hills and Brendan has just asked Josh to tell him about Ash Cave. It’s slightly over 6 sentences but they’re short and I wanted it to make sense….
“The cave is about seven hundred feet long and about a hundred deep. The waterfall cascading around us is from the east fork of Queer Creek.”
Brendan arched one of his eyebrows. “Really?”
Joshua shrugged. “Didn’t name it and I’m sure it means the strange sort of queer, not the me kind.” His face flamed. “Did I say that out loud?”
“You did.”
And here you go, Queer Creek spilling over the rim of Ash Cave.
If you’d like to play along, Rainbow Snippets is a Facebook community where we post up 6 sentences of one of our LGBT stories every Saturday. It’s been fun and you can find it here. Be sure to check out all the offers! It’s been a great supportive group!
Hahaha! Yes, he sure did. 😀

Yeah sometimes Josh’s biggest enemy is his own mouth.

*lol* Love it!
Hmmm… Camp Nano… I’ve never done that & could use a kick in the muse right about now. It’s probably too late to sign up, but maybe next year…

i think you can still sign up (but you probably won’t get a cabin)
I’m pretty competitive with word sprints so it’s about the one thing that kicks my butt for me.
And thanks

Haha, he jumped in there with both feet. That cave is huge!

He didn’t mean to jump in with both feet but there you have it. The cave is 700 feet long and 100 feet deep so really it’s more of a shelter than a true cave.
