lagilman: coffee or die (my job)
[personal profile] lagilman
It seems to work for other people, so in the hopes of lighting a fire under my posterior, herewith the opening lines of everything (short story-wise) that needs to be finished, damn it, in May. Or June.

Untitled Story #1

The Rapture occurred at 5:58 am. I was not driving my car. I was not unmaned.

One-eyed Trouble

"I was thinking it’s maybe time we had a change of scenery."

untitled Story #2

The wind was sneaky, waiting around the corner to pounce on you.

They Come Back in Spring

"Once, we were nomads."

Wolfling

"Tough break."

A World of Unfortunate Place Names

There were no safe places in Portside.


and a bit from a story that died, that I really need to find a home for otherwise:

"David's the talent, I'm the handler.'
"Takes talent to handle me right."
I ignored him. "He's also my husband. It was the only way to seal the deal. My mother warned me not to get involved with witches."
"Your mother would know. Oh, wait, that was a w, not a b. And the correct term, as you well know, is 'etheric interpreter." Witch is just so…warty."

Y'know, I've been in a slump lately, too. Must be the time of year or something. Spring fever? I've been getting way too much knitting and cooking and pond contemplating done these past few weeks, on top of some health troubles.
