Welcome to Six-Sentence Sunday!
My horror novella, SOMETHING BLACK…, is available now, so here’s a final snippet!
This week’s excerpt catches a young train commuter who steps out of the restroom, and into a nightmare:
Gabriel undid the lock and slid the restroom door open. He failed to notice how dark it was until after he’d stepped into the car. His feet landed on a puddle of thick and slippery liquid and slid out from under him, and he fell on his back and cracked his head against the floor. The air blasted out of his lungs.
For a moment, Gabriel thought he’d broken his skull. There was blood beneath him, and it took him a moment to realize it wasn’t his.

Very visual and gripping six. Not everyone can do genuine “action” to the point. Great job, always looking forward to your six!
Thanks, Daniela!
Slip and slide from hell! Great six, as always
Wheeeeeeee! ;D
Thanks Wendy!
Into a nightmare indeed. Great and visceral six.
Hey Steven,
This is my first visit to your blog. As a favorite of Wendy S. Russo and as good as she is, I had to stop in.
Great Six. I can sense the horror he feels.
Great action and description!
“…and it took him a moment to realize it wasn’t his.” Nice– ominous! “landed, blasted, cracked” Excellent choices to convey specific actions.
Good six, Steven.
Scary and suspenseful. Now, we must find out who’s blood. Well done!
Thank you everybody! =D
