So I had a funny moment while reading last night. I'm starting this book- Mafia themed, sort of expecting it to be a bit of a dramedy. It seemed kinda light hearted in the description. So I'm reading and reading and I get a few chapters in and I am just reallllllly confused. B/c this is not the light hearted dramedy I was expecting. It went from 1 to 100 REAL quick- got intense with torture and mind games and all sorts of madness. Mind you, it was like... 1 AM when I was reading this. So i decide to look back at the description to see where I went wrong and realize that I'VE BEEN READING A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BOOK hahaha. Felt pretty dumb for not recognizing a different title but it did give me a good laugh :)

Thanks for all the comments on my stories! I do appreciate it! I think I’ve read most of them. I just get anxious reading comments, sometimes I get the mean responses to my stuff and it throws me off, so I try to avoid it. XO

@kylekay haha no worries. pretty sure half my comments are just garbage reactions- laughter or short bursts of thought. :) So i'm sure you don't have to read them all haha. They're never mean tho so you're safe there!

Made it through a fifth chapter tonight! and amazingly I have ideas rolling already for chapter 6. Not bad for someone who doesn't write except in my own journals. :) I'm currently house sitting a remote house up in the mountains of Montana- I have a creek out back and trees everywhere I look. Perhaps it's the setting that has my creative juices flowing since it so closely mirrors the scene in my story. Hope you all enjoy chapter 5- give me some feed back if you want :)

So I took a chance and posted a chapter. It's part of what will likely be a short story (as it's my first!) and while it has a paranormal vibe to it, I really had this inspiration to make a character that was smart and observant and put these skills to good use in a trying situation. So if you like strong female leads, or you just imagine yourself making better decisions than your fictional counterparts, maybe this story is for you. :) Enjoy! It's called Inescapable.
