7/24/2015 6 Comments Facet Fiction FridayMeaning behind the name... Every author has their own "facet", their own color and brilliance, shine and shimmer, like a jewel or a diamond in the rough. Now is YOUR time to let your talents shine through! The Rules: Share a short sample (let's say 15 sentences) of your clean/sweet/inspirational work-in-progress or published work. Make sure to post a buy link - I want others to find your work! One last thing...Share this post! If you share this post then we all have our samples read. Easy, peasy, right? Now for my own sample... Today's sample comes from Darla, Book Five, in The Board Series. Darla is the classic Mail Order Bride story. Available at Amazon for 99 cents! Or free on Kindle Unlimited. Grabbing the paper, she stalked toward the fire. A column on the last page caught her attention. Out-of-towner Derrick Tavers appointed to sheriff's position in Eden's Hollow. Residents accept him with open arms. See his advertisement in the classified section. Darla gnawed her lip. No way had she missed a classified. She had read every one. She was sure of it. Flipping back to the classifieds she scanned the contents. Between the folded lines, scrunched and barely legible, was an advertisement. Sheriff Derrick Tavers of Eden's Hollow in need of a wife. Send application to Eden's Hollow Post Office. Now it's your turn! Share those excerpts and buy links! *Credit for the emerald pic goes to: Rob Lavinsky, iRocks.com – CC-BY-SA-3.0 [CC BY-SA 3.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0)], via Wikimedia Commons

Oh, dear Lord! I lost my job! No, I just quit my job. She held up the photograph. “George, I am a colossal idiot.”

Only 15 sentences? This is a challenge! From my novella, Almost a Fairy Tale, in which a princess is rescued from a tower to find herself in a totally different world:
