So, before I really get started, I'd like to tell you what this blog is really going to be about. But I can't because I don't know what it's going to be about. I might post parts of my book that I'm writing, I might just start fangirling about how the sky is blue. You never really know with me.
But, today I am going to post part of my book. It's called Staying Alive. I hope you thoroughly enjoy it and come back next time for the next chapter. (Oh, yeah, I'm posting it one chapter at a time.)
Staying Alive
Prologue
I run, panting, going as fast as possible. I have to get away. I have to outrun them. Must stay alive. Must stay alive. I chat the phrase over and over in my mind. It becomes my breath. It becomes my heartbeat. It becomes my everything. It's all I know to be true now. Now that the fabric of my reality has come crashing down like the curtain at the end of a play. All that I know for sure now is that I must keep running, keep breathing. Must stay alive.
I'm dripping sweat .My arms and spots of my clothing are soaked with blood. I feel a thrill in my stomach when I know it's theirs. My side is bleeding, my shirt torn. I know they have some of mine. I know I got shot. I know soon I will start feeling the pulsing pain over the adrenaline in my blood. I know that if I don't get a bandage on it, it might get infected or I might bleed to death. But I can't let that happen, because I must stay alive.
**The End Of The Prologue**
And that, my fine peers, was the prologue of the new book I'm writing Staying Alive. I hope you enjoyed it. Tell others about it. Don't know you, but love you.
