Game on! Dog is done #8Sunday #wewriwra

weekend_writing_warriorsveteransbadge_4Game on! is my new short story I’m serving up on Weekend Writers Warriors #8Sunday. Please see the link below and check out many talented authors’ snippets.

After hanging up on Sandy, Heath decides the Virginia Beach oceanfront is to intrusive. He texts his teammate and roommate, Dugan, of his change in plans. Arriving a his beach rental, he he finds his buddy on the driveway under the house waxing his Fatboy Harley-Davidson. Knowing Heath pretty well, Dugan has just asked if he’d gotten another call from his crazy ex.

He leveled a sunglass shaded gaze at his friend.

“You’re better off without her, man. She was just dragging you down,” he said buffing the red metallic gas tank to a high sheen. “

Think she’s figured out her new dog isn’t as easy to train as the old one. Must be having second thoughts.” He’d been her stupid mutt for a few of months.

“Hope you’re not going to roll over if she decides to head south,” Dugan said with gritty determination.

“Those days are done, bro.”

Romance Weekly – April 22 #LoveWriteChat #Blog

This week’s author questions:  inspiration and conveying a message…
RomanceWeeklyThanks to Julie Abdinoor for this week’s Romance Weekly questions. Nineteen authors are participating this week. Take the full tour using the link below. 

 

What ages are your characters?  They tend to be late twenties to mid-thirties. I didn’t really consider myself an adult until I turned thirty and didn’t grow a set until I became a mama bear at thirty-five. I enjoy writing about characters still finding their way and making major life choices. As I write romance, my characters are in search of love whether they realize it or not.

What special things or places inspire you to write?  My muse tends to find inspiration when I least suspect she’s on the prowl. Whether it’s a movie, a book, a character in either, or a place; the process starts out like a crush. From there, I’m hooked and the seed blooms into a story.

Like most writers, my interests play a major role in what I write. 640px-Iraq_dogCurrently I’m researching military K9 teams. I want to write a story about a former handler being reunited with their dog. Of course the protagonist must also find a human love interest along the way. Did you know military dogs are always one rank higher than their handler?

What is the one message you hope women will receive when they read your stories?  I hope they get two; believe in yourself and don’t take life too seriously.

Hop on over to Susan Peterson Wisnewskis blog to continue the tour and find out about her characters and special things that inspire her.
