Happy February! I can’t believe how fast this year is going :0 It’s getting away from me, that’s for sure. I’ve been busy with writing. I (FINALLY) finished Three Dog Night and have started the third book in that series, titled Rescue Me, and I’ve been working on edits and polishing up Little Infinities for release this month. Which brings me to #RainbowSnippets day 😀
In case you didn’t know, #RainbowSnippets is a Facebook group for LGBTQ+ authors, readers, and bloggers to gather once a week to share six sentences from a work of fiction–a WIP or a finished work or even a 6-sentence book recommendation.
Shameless promo: If you wanna see the cover and blurb for Little Infinities, hop on over to this post and take a look 🙂
I found myself looking into the wide blue eyes of a tiny, wrinkly-skinned alien.
“What is that?” It was naked. There was no fur. Was this a thing now? Like those little yippy designer dogs girls could carry around in their purses? The feline, who was long and skinny with splotches of dark grey over his flesh-colored skin, blinked slowly at me. He regarded me with stink-eye before he walked across my legs to lay down on Apollo’s hip. His tail twitched, annoyed.
Apollo grinned. “Oh my god, Seb, it’s a cat.”
Aww, poor furless kitty. 😦 Love that opening line description of it! ❤

Love the description of the cat! By a huge coincidence I’m in the middle of reading another book that has hairless cats in it 🙂

I’m not sure how I feel about hairless cats. I like the furred variety too much, I suppose. But this snip made a great read, especially the way you misdirected with “alien”…
