Novellas

Cool thing happened. Was browsing through someone’s Facebook pictures and came up with a new novella idea. This concept came from a much less…what’s the word…base foundation than the first novella concept that came to me last year.

What was my idea from last year? Well, it was a romance dealing with the 30-year crisis. You know, the one that comes after the quarter-life crisis?

During which I hear a loud pop, like a car backfiring. It was a bit startling but I went back to my business of half-filling my tank.

Less than a minute later, another gas station patron shouted out “Someone just got shot!”  I turned, and not 10-15 feet away from me on the street curb lay a bloody body. But by the slow heaving of his chest, he was still alive.
