Hi! Welcome to another Weekend Writing Warrior and Snippet Sunday round. Every week writers post 8-to-10 sentences on their blogs from a published or unpublished book. Then we "hop" around and leave comments on each other's snippets. Whether our work is already published or in progress, the helpful comments help us become stronger writers on our next WIP. We welcome EVERYONE's comments.
For the next few weeks I'll be sharing snippets from my 2015 holiday-themed short story Believing in Santa
True confession time. Over coffee Dini tells Seth about her humiliation at being left at the altar. Then she asks him about his community service...
This is the LAST week I am posting from this short story ~ read below to see how you can get a copy for yourself FOR FREE.
(the following may have been creatively edited to fit) ...and now the eight nine:
“I
got drunk one night, got into a fight, and tore up the bar a bit. I don’t have
a drinking problem.”
She
stared at him for a split second, “I didn’t ask.”
“I
just wanted you to know. I recently returned from Iraq, I spent six years in
the service and just got discharged… honorably.”
Dini
wasn’t sure what to say, “Welcome home, thank you for your service.”
Seth swallowed a laugh.
“Sure didn’t feel like a welcome home. Everything was different.”

Dini didn’t want to think about her past. And, Seth wasn’t thinking about anything but his past. Thrown together as Santa and his Number One Elf at the homeless shelter, Dini and Seth seem to be on opposite sides... of everything. Her past is catching up to her, and Seth may risk his future to protect her.
