Jin could swear that every #month was like a boss battle. More of the NPA agents kept driving the #wedge between the agency and the SWA. Every assassin threat was meant to #distract them, especially since the SWA got Androids. Jin felt like he was picking up extra shifts. #WIPSnips

Finally get to feature the characters texting! #WIPSnips #WritingCommunity #distract

Screenshot of the following novel excerpt:

Jen started to follow but got distracted when her phone made squirrel noises to tell her she had a text message. She stopped to read.
Leon: fr r u ok?
Jen: I'm fine. Should I not be?
Leon: idk. leprechauns r 1 thing but u do not need 2 mess with certain fair folk. dont let them give u any gifts or take u anywhere.
Jen darted a glance at Ella.
Jen: Figured that out a while ago.
Leon: good! & DEF dont tell aisling thank u 4 anything EVER
Jen looked at Aisling’s retreating form. She mentally replayed the last few hours. One brief panic attack, one harp-induced dream, then easy acceptance of whatever Aisling said.
The subject of her ruminations looked back as if she could feel Jen watching her, though she didn’t stop moving. At that distance, Jen couldn’t fully read Aisling’s expression. The fluorescent lighting in the hallway had rendered Aisling almost transparent.

Excerpt from the #novel TUSK: a Beringia Story - a tale of an ancient clan, following the herds of the mammoth.

*Molak ponders his uncertain future among the Mammoth Clan.
#books #booklovers #booksky #read

There were no more stories to be told. Slowly in silence the clan dispersed, seeking the warmth of hides and the escape of sleep. Molak sat alone, the light of the fire giving in to the night. Somewhere in the forest below, a lone wolf howled and the voices of more joined the chorus. Molak thought of his father, a respected leader in his time, a different time. Hooyip had said now was the time of the mammoth. Molak disagreed.
The fires now were merely embers. Molak rose in the red glow, the last to leave the ridge. He turned towards the forest, distracted again, for a moment, by the haunting cries of the wolves.
In his mind he saw himself again, kicking his mother. He shook his head and pushed away the shame rising in his heart.
It was a different time, but not, as Hooyip proclaimed, the time of the mammoth.
No.
Now was his time. Now was the time to tell his story. Now was the time of Molak.

#distract from Far Worlds, Book Three of the Lonely Ship Saga.

Sera interviews Marcus, ostensibly for her own records but in actuality for sellable data. *And* she's curious 😉

He was drawing into himself, Sera could tell. She wasn’t normally so good at reading people, and she much preferred the predictability of machines. Maybe that was why she could read Marcus. After all, wasn’t he a machine himself?
“Tell me about your women, then.”
He narrowed his eyes at her with a hint of blush in his cheeks. Distraction successful. “Why?”
“People might want to know,” she replied with a grin.
“People like who? Who’s going to read that report of yours?”
Oops, she’d almost given the game away. Sera’s fingers tapped idly on the keyboard as she put on what she hoped was a bashful smile.
“I’m curious,” she said. And then, since that was too strong a reaction, “Remember that you almost made part of your harem after Ring City. I need to know what sort of company I was going to keep if you’d gotten your hands on me.”
