Six Sentence Sunday 9-23 Darlene is back!

Hey, I remembered to sign up this week and I'm posting a snippet from my WIP, Haints in Hollywood, which features Darlene, Richie and Tommy Ray from "Laid to Rest." In this story, they get stranded in a haunted house and Darlene has to tangle with some unfriendly spirits. The snippet is from the beginning where their car breaks down at night on a lonely road that leads to a Mississippi ghost town called Hollywood.

Darlene and Tommy Ray are going to walk into town and Richie is staying behind with car. Darlene lets him know about her guns

     “Oh, if you need it, there’s a sawed-off shotgun and a box of shells under the front seat."

            “You gotta a shotgun in the car?” Richie asked, his eyes wide like he'd never heard of such.

            “Sure I do. I also have a rifle in the trunk and a thirty-eight special in here.” I patted my red vinyl purse with affection. “I’m American.”
