Six Sentence Sunday

Six Sentence Sunday strikes again...

For those not familiar with me, I write hetero erotic romance as Lauren Gallagher and M/M erotic romance as L. A. Witt. This week, from L. A. Witt, six sentences from a contemporary erotic work-in-progress, Conduct Unbecoming:

He was obviously military. Of course he was. The vast majority of Americans on this island were, but he wore it even in civvies. The high and tight haircut was neat, but his dark hair was grown out enough on top to suggest he knew how far he could push the regulations.

Even as out of place as he looked, he didn't give off any kind of nervous vibe. He just came across as someone taking in new, unfamiliar surroundings. He still had confident shoulders and fearless eyes, still carried himself like the kind of man who didn’t get intimidated, but would look another man square in the eye even if he was intimidated.

Want to play along? It’s fun and easy!
1. pick a project – a current WIP, contracted work or even something readers can buy if you’re published
2. pick six sentences
3. post ‘em on Sunday

  6. I like how you can tell he's military when he's out of uniform, and that's he's a bit of a rebel. Great snippet!

  8. I like how "he wore it even in civvies" but his hair is just a touch long. Great snippet!

  9. Nice! I always like the military man who doesn't quite fit the mold even while being a good soldier. :)
