Romance Readers Reading Challenges discussion

Hot days or sultry nights? The season of summer is usually synonymous to fun but fleeting moments, of quick sparks that burned hot and strong only to fizzle out at the onset of autumn.

Write a story, fictitious or autobiographical, using the season of summer and what it means to you, as your inspiration.

Come on folks! We have a bunch of creative and intelligent people in this group. Surely someone has a story for us!

I'll try to put something up this week. I've been busier than a one armed paper hanger in an ass-kicking contest. We'll see what gets done.

my brain has apparently decided its on va'kay...I have like 100 words written and that's it...lol!

Thoughts: My favorite part is the descriptive language. I can practically feel the heat through the words. Also the touch of local color was a nice addition. Looking forward to read more of your writings.

No tip for Sarah? : )

She "liked" me. That counts, right? ;)

Lovely.

Very vivid details. I like the use of contrast between the cold inside of the library and the hot outdoors.

Love the conversation between Grace and Ethan. And I like the way it was ended...the possibilities that there is more to the accidental meeting.
