The Girls of Greentree

I really like that name as a title-The Girls of Greentree. I think that may be it. Nothing is concrete yet, but that's what I'm thinking.

I have been pretty busy lately, working at home as a ChaCha.Com search guide. This isn't a great-paying job, but it is a paying job, and I can work as much or as little as I want. Since I'm paid per completed search, I have been working an awful lot the last couple days, and have performed over 800 searches in that time! So I obviously haven't had much time for writing, but I am setting aside a half hour tomorrow for writing. I think Trinity's gonna get in trouble with the law....hmmm.....maybe cocaine possession?? Or exchanging sex for money with an undercover cop?? Oh, the possibilities! What would you like to see happen? Leave a comment and let me know. I appreciate ALL feedback! :-)

A Scene for My Readers

Hi everyone!

I wrote a new scene last night, and though it is a tiny piece of the book, I wanted to share it with all of you, especially since readership has gone up by about 400% within the past week! So, here it is:

Sneak Peak Scene #402
Bailey clocked in to work at 9:01am. She had woke up that morning with terrible pain, chills, and sweat soaking the collar of her shirt.

"Hey Trinity, how's it been so far?" She asked, hoping for an easy day at work.

Trinity rolled her eyes. "Same ol', same ol'", she replied, a disgusted look on her face.

"Damn, I can't wait to get a better job. Has Thomas been in yet?" Bailey hoped he wouldn't be there at all today.

"He's at table 7 bitching about his coffee being too hot and his food being too cold. He's all yours, girl", Trinity smirked.

Bailey did a mental eye roll. He must be out of pills. She sauntered over to his table, where he was sitting with his ever-present sidekick Chris, talking about motorcycles and strippers.

"How's your meal today, guys?" Bailey asked in her best waitress voice.

"I'll have one of you to go." Replied Thomas.

"Babe, you know I have to work today. I can't take off. We're already short one girl." Bailey knew the whole mood was about to change.

"Fuck this place!"

"This place pays me money so I can give it to  you!" Bailey felt a rush of heat from her toes to her head. She slammed down the check on the solid oak dining table. "I think you should leave now." She walked away, and after a few seconds, she was smiling from ear to ear because this was the first time she'd ever got the last word when it came to him.

Within five minutes, Tom and Chris were gone, leaving empty beer bottles and shot glasses covering the entire tabletop. Whatever, Bailey thought to herself. I'm just glad hes gone. For now.

It never failed that Bailey would come home from a long day's work, only to find Tom in his boxer shorts sitting on her couch watching "Steve Wilkos" with a tall can of Bud Light in his hand.

The Diagnosis



Well, I found out why it hurts so bad to write or walk or do anything. I have a pinched nerve in my back. I'm allowed to go back to work with very strict orders to only work 4 hr shifts and I must take a 15 minute break every two hours. I am not allowed to do hardly anything physical, but I'm glad to be able to work again!

I start physical therapy tomorrow. Hopefully that will help get me back to where I can sit down and write!

I'm going kinda crazy with all the subplots and characters swirling around my head. Can't wait to get them all out on paper!

I've reached my limit. My shoulders, back and neck are tingling again, so I'm gonna lay down for the night.

The Comment option is now working. Click the little link below that says 0 comments, and post from there. I welcome all feedback and of course, stories and experiences from other writers. Thanks!
