Hey I'm really new here! :) I have no idea how this works. When I made my account wattpad said I should comment on other peoples profile to spread my story, so here's an excerpt from Wandering Violet:
My footfalls make hard slaps on the deserted road. It's freezing, I'm exhausted, and I lost my shoes a half hour ago. As I cross into the woods I stop and breathe a sigh of relief for the first time in hours. There are no signs of the men who’ve been chasing me. Panting, I sink behind a patch of bushes. Peering through them, I see no sign of headlights on the road or their car. Still panting, I grab my phone out of my back pocket and try to dial the police. No signal; of course. I swear and hot tears begin to stream down my cheeks. None of this would have happened if Mom had listened to me. I am so going to kill her for making us go to this stupid dinner. That is, if I ever see her again. Choking back a sob, I put my head into my hands.
