Better The Devil You Know / Blind Date 7 of 31 Suzi needs a date. Well actually, based on the bet she just made with her two best friends, she needs thirty-one dates. Thirty one blind dates to be exact. Hoping this to be Lucky Number 7, Suzi heads off to meet the very cool Ms. Dante, who's sporting an inverted crucifix earring and a Stranger Things button. The most Suzi was expecting was to not spill passata down her white vintage dress, but the mysterious Ms. Dante has a claim to fame which is either going to make for a very interesting evening, or perhaps become the weirdest date Suzi has ever been on. *** This one-shot is part of the 31 Blind Dates anthology from more than two dozen Wattpad writers including members of the Stars program, published authors, Ambassadors and Wattys winners. At the end of each story, you will find the link to the next chapter in the collection.

Flash Fiction, challenges, fun short things, including this: This is my entry to @ScienceFiction's Challenge 8: The Duoabble. The goal of this challenge is to write a story about a teenager and an alien life form in EXACTLY 200 words. The scoop: Girl meets alien. Alien tells her that other aliens will attack Earth soon. Girl (kind of) tries to convince people. Alien is not impressed with her "save the world" skills. Earth gets sort of...forgotten about. Oops! Cover photo by Stephendotcarter.
