Six Sentence Sunday #8
By Jasmine on 10th December, 2011
Happy Sunday, everyone. This week’s six are from my time travel work in progress, Time’s Catalyst.
The envelope simply read: Violet, in a bold script, written with what looked to be an old-fashioned, quill or dip pen.Intrigued, she slid the envelope open. Her eyes widened at the handwritten script inside.
As a Victorian historian, she had studied so many beautiful Victorian courtship letters.
I never dreamed I’d get one.
Heart pounding, face flushed and warm, she began to read.
Hope you all have lovely weekends. I’m off to cook dinner for the in-laws!

oooh, another time travel writer! (I am too) I’m intrigued, great snippet. Also adding you to my post… How far along are you in your WIP?

Oh my! This one really holds my interest! You mentioned a key word – Victorian. Have a fascination with that age. Will be back for more!

What a perfect, perfect situation for a Victorian historian to be in: traveling back to her favorite (one assumes) time in history and getting a real letter. Cool. Of course, maybe this is the letter before she goes back in time…I sure wonder what that letter says! Great six.

Angela – I’m about 40k in. Hope for about 60k overall.
Thanks everyone for reading!!

A love letter written with a quill would be fun.
