Welcome to Six Sentence Sunday, the day in which I join a couple hundred other authors to showcase fun six sentence long snippets on their blogs.

Guess who forgot about Six Sentence Sunday? If you guessed me, you’d be correct. So it’s way late, but it’s up! This week is from No Strings Attached, a contemporary romance I’m currently editing.

Ethan sat across from his parents at the large oak table. Papers were stacked up on the surface, in nice, neat orderly stacks. It was that once-a-month talk with his parents about investments and responsibilities of the family. He’d have rather stabbed himself in the eye with a spork.

His father, Michael Kearney III, leaned forward, tilting up his head to peer down through his reading glasses, though Ethan was sure it was a play to appear superior. Michael did everything with a purpose in mind

For those new to Six Sentence Sunday, you can play too:

1) pick a book– a current Work in Progress, contracted work or even something readers can buy if you’re published

2) pick six sentences from anywhere in the story

3) post them on Sunday (hence the Six Sentence SUNDAY)
