Lena stepped back in the bedroom overlooking the Pacific
ocean once more. The first thing she saw
was the blonde sitting in a chair, staring straight ahead at the unlit
fireplace. The would-be starlet looked
blank-eyed and slack-jawed. It appeared
that Satan had blown all her circuits at some point, leaving a pretty, if
mindless, doll.

Six Sentence Sunday – Willow in the Desert
Carli
hated to hear the Becomings referred to as bugs, but in the interest of moving
things along, she let it go. “He’s shown
no sign of overwhelming blood hunger. I
think his Asperger’s is protecting him from going rogue. Maybe it somehow makes him immune. Even if he wasn’t, he’d have a good six weeks
left before we’d have to … retire him.
He’ll be okay.”

First Five Friday - Lilith
Chapter 30
Colwyn and
Jacob waited in the car while Alex went into the church.
She stepped
into the hush of the interior and inhaled deeply. The aromatic layers of years of incense, flowers, and candle wax
teased her nostrils. Once upon a time,
those mingled scents had given her a sense of security. That time seemed very long ago.

Six Sentence Sunday – The Willow and the Stone
Renee raised her gaze, her
ears still ringing with the blast from the gun.
The horror stalked on its wisp thin legs to stand over her. The moonlight showed it in glaring detail;
seven feet of alien. Its proboscis
writhed and lengthened. The end narrowed
to a needle tip. Hypnotized with terror,
she watched as a drop appeared at the end of the profane appendage.

First Five Friday – Willow in the Desert
"I rarely got a chance to catch my breath on this one...I just couldn't put the book down." --Manic Readers review
Chapter 16
Gordon was horrified when he
took in the situation at the main entrance to the base. Carli, armed with nothing more than a
flamethrower, was pinned behind the guardhouse that had once been the checkpoint
for Cyrus’ comings and goings. Her squad
took shelter behind stacked debris several yards behind her, laying down fire
when the mutants guarding the main gate tried to creep up on her position. Many of the mutants were returning fire. They had gotten hold of Kevlar vests and
pushed large crates ahead of themselves as the inched closer to Carli’s hiding
place.
