Effing Feline is starving
Effing Feline in his svelte youth
[image error]I, Effing Feline, am starving. Mr V (my pet human) thinks I ate too much over the holidays, so he’s put me on a diet. He’s starting to call me Jabba the Cat. How humiliating. I’m sure you’ll agree that I don’t need to lose weight!
So I’m asking you — begging you! — to sneak food to me. Ed will never know, I promise.
Here’s another snippet from Rescuing Prince Charming. Dusty Johnson, a tech writer working on Earth’s first starship, is helping a Kwadran (a Native American from an alternate Earth) get rid of a saboteur’s time bomb. Racing against time, they’ve finally made it out of the starship. My apologies for the perhaps crude editing to make this fit the guidelines.
[image error]Carrying the bomb, she ran; behind her, the Kwadran’s footsteps banged down the metal ramp, barely loud enough to be heard over the klaxon that still screamed its warning. “Where are you heading?” he called.
He wasn’t even breathing hard. She wanted to kiss him for his bravery and his conditioning. “Only one place to head,” she said as she pointed toward the only natural light in the huge cavern, where a pair of sliding glass doors led to a patio overlooking a fiord. From there, she could throw the bomb into the ocean. “Time?”
“Seventy-eight seconds.”
Yet it was still a long way to the doors. She tried to be a heroine and what did she get? A ticking time bomb eager to remove her appendix.
Effing Feline here again. To feed me, put fresh salmon or, if absolutely necessary, kibble in an envelope and send it to Effing@LordOfEverything.com. Hurry!
When you’ve finished sending me food — and only then — visit the other writers in the Weekend Writing Warriors and Snippet Sunday.
