Six Sentence Sunday
Aug. 19th, 2012 03:31 pmFrom the holiday short story I'm working on, six rather lengthy sentences. See what you think of them. Do they interest you?
He'd grown up among his tribe, the Ute as the history books called them, the Nuciu in their own language, in southern Colorado, exposed not only to some crazy strict Christians but also his own people's beliefs. Anthony preferred the latter but John and his big Italian family were Catholic. He gave them credit for not giving him shit about his beliefs and he did the same for them. His and John's house burst with Christmas crap. The first time, back in their apartment, when he left John have full rein Anthony had been somewhere between horrified and amused that his otherwise rugged lover was a collector of Snow Men and Santa Clauses. Everywhere he looked around the living room snowy and jolly faces stared back.
