Tuesday Tales: From the Word SILVERY


 Welcome to this week's edition of Tuesday Tales where a small group of authors invite you to share their works in progress.  Each week, we write a 400-word scene based on a word prompt. This week our prompt is SILVERY.


FLOSSIE BENTON ROGERS (Cozy Mystery)


“Because I found the body?”


TRICIA ANDERSEN (Greek god/Paranormal Romance)

Thanks for deciding for us, bro.



JEAN JOACHIM (Women's Fiction)

“It’s okay to think Terry’s hot, right? I mean, thinking someone’s hot isn’t doing anything about it, is it?”



JILLIAN CHANTAL (Contemporary)

“Wonder what else is down here?”


 

SUSANNE MATTHEWS (Contemporary Paranormal Romance Suspense)

Just his picture had enthralled her, and here he was in the flesh.


TRISHA FAYE (Historical Fiction)

“Yes, that’s Eliza Jane. Wonder how she’s doing. I haven’t seen her in a coons age.”

TUESDAY TALES - KICK

 


Every week a small group of writers get together and post free stories written to a word prompt. This week the word prompt is "kick". Come and read the stories by these talented authors. You'll find them here: 

JEAN JOACHIM (Women's Fiction)

She might be upset, and distracted, but, hell, she wasn’t dead.


FLOSSIE BENTON ROGERS (Cozy Mystery)

Startled, I leapt from the chair.


JILLIAN CHANTAL (Contemporary Short Story)

  I take refuge under the big oak tree that gives the best shade.


SUSANNE MATTHEWS (MF/Contemporary Paranormal Romantic Suspense)

The woman stopped abruptly, staring at her as if she were looking at a ghost.


TRICIA ANDERSEN (Greek God Paranormal Romance)

Had her powers not been suppressed, he’d probably be turned into a chipmunk by now.
