Well, I know I was posting six sentences of my work in progress, but I think I was boring you to tears, so it’s time to move along.
This week I’m sharing six sentences from my first novel, Wyoming Solace. An historical western love story set in the Snowy Range Mountains here in Wyoming.
Since when was laundry such an enjoyable chore?
Elise stooped beneath the shade of a cottonwood, drenched with soapy water and her own perspiration, but she’d never felt better. She remembered her maid Amelia crouching over the laundry tub. Although she never complained, nor accepted Elise’s offer to help, the job didn’t look exhilarating in the least. Now, she took out years worth of frustration on the canvas work pants, which filled her with a sense of accomplishment.
A strand of blonde hair escaped her braid, and she brushed it from her cheek with the back of her hand.
It’s nice to revisit my older stories. Like old friends meeting for coffee 🙂
Have a great week. See you next Sunday! Again, visit the other SSS participants HERE.
I'm glad she enjoys doing laundry. It's one of those never-ending chores.
Nice six!

Thanks for stopping by, ladies! I suppose if I grew up wishing I could do some, laundry might be more fun. Not in a tub like Elise though. Those pioneer women had it rough!
She can come to my house and do laundry if she enjoys it so much.
Love that she's taking her frustration out on laundry! Nice six!
I'm so partial to Westerns and/or historicals. If there are mountains, I'm really hooked in. This genre is one of my faves to read and write.
I'm off to look for a copy of this book. Well done, Keta
