The heroine has just run away from her wedding and is en route to her honeymoon destination, sans groom, being transported to a private island by a very irksome seaplane pilot…
“Not too late to swim, if you’re offended by the service.”
“No, thank you, though I suspect I’ll be sitting in the cabin on the way back.”
“Probably wise—my old man was a cabbie in New York,” Will said. “My gifts of customer service are purely genetic.”
“A very rare and malicious disorder, I’m sure. Thank goodness you’re not contagious.”

Thanks for stopping by, everyone!
ReplyDeleteLiz: my first Blaze, which I was able to sub as a full—my prize from winning a Blaze "hook contest" at a conference—sat on my now-editor's desk for fourteen months before I receive a call requesting revisions. I knew they're busy and wouldn't get back to me quickly, but it took so long, I was positive they'd read it, hated it, burned it, and blacklisted me, not even bothering to send a formal rejection note. Not so! They mean it when they say they read every sub they receive (part of why getting a reply can take forever). So don't give up yet!
Congrats on your sale!!! That's huge!
ReplyDeleteAnd *G*! great six! I wonder what else he is serving up!
