I present to you Eight Sentence Sunday, a blog hop hosted by Weekend Writing Warriors. I have some lines from my Moon Murder rewrite. The first scene is available as an audio sample on my sample chapters page if you want to give it a listen!

A small collection of clear domes came into view. Their lights were off, yet the white floors shimmered, sending rays into spaceblack.

"I wonder what that colony was used for...."

Alexander looked up from his notes. "That was a robot facility, they tried to design robots to do all of the jobs that were particularly dangerous for humans to do." He went back to his notes without waiting for a response.

Zheng scooted back on the couch. Autonomous robots weren't allowed on Earth, for good reason. She remembered the news reports, the terror, the protests, the court cases. A shutter she couldn't control went down her spine.

Zheng counted the handful of guards at the outskirts of the room. Seven, plus a butler at the table to the right of the throne. The wall behind him was taken over by a well stocked bar manned by a bartender who was meticulously washing glasses. The front wall was made of three large windows, while the left was covered in screens with ever changing statistics for betting in each arena.

A brood man Zheng guessed was Mason laughed as the two fighters in the pit looked for an opening. "This is when it starts to get interesting."

The butler announced their presence. "Sir, the representative from the research colony is here to talk about the food."

Mason waved his hand in dismissal. "Tell him to wait."

I present to you Eight Sentence Sunday, a blog hop hosted by Weekend Writing Warriors. I have the first eight lines of the second scene of my Moon Murder rewrite. The first scene is available as an audio sample on my sample chapters page if you want to give it a listen!

The female alien's opponent tried to get within striking zone, but she danced out of the way while getting in three more hits. He screamed as he charged towards her, "Fight me like a real person!" She took a step to the side, and then tapped his knee.

The man fell to the ground with a scream of pain. Holding his left leg in his hands.

"The winner in arena 14 is Diapycnal! The next contender for arena 14 against Diapycnal is Henry!"

Officials with gray overalls put the previous contestant on a stretcher and moved him to the recovery section of the rocky crags.

"Diapycnal! It’s been so long, I knew that I recognized her."
