Survived week one of work but still no signs of whether or not I have my sabbatical for next year.
Here’s a little more of my WIP These Haunted Hills It’s more of Brendan’s conversation with his ex, Kristen.
In spite of his protestations about being good, he could still hear the worry and pain in her tone. “I can do that. Besides we might be going ghost hunting at night soon anyhow.”
“I can almost picture you bouncing around like a little boy.”
At that his heart clenched. Kristen went silent, no doubt feeling the same pain. If it was this bad for him he could only guess at the pain she felt losing the son she had sheltered inside her body.
He forced a smile into his voice. “I am. Joshua and I even went looking for foxes in the woods around my cabin.”
She laughed. “You in the woods? I still can’t picture it. What brought that on?”
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!

Thanks. In their case they remained friends but just couldn’t hold it together after their son died.

Thanks. It’s based on a couple people I know (who are better friends than they were married couple).

I wonder if he’s going to admit that he thought they were monsters when he first heard them.
