This week I'm trying out the Teaser Blog Hop from Indie-licious, a great resource for independent and small press authors.
Picking just one paragraph is tough!
So, without further ado, a teaser from The Charge.
I have a son. I
had no choice. Will memorized every word. Nothing else remained of his
father other than the recorded words from the trial. An international tribunal
found his father guilty of the "wanton destruction of human life not
justified by military necessity," then sentenced him to death. Will didn't
get to say goodbye to his father before the execution. His mother had said, "Daddy
says he loves you very much, and to be a good boy. You'll see him again in
Heaven."
Heaven. Yeah, right. But what should she say? Be a bad boy and maybe
you'll get to see Daddy again in Hell?
Now hop to it and read some more!
Ahh Will... I like him. You picked a great paragraph this week!
