Okay, I am taking the plunge and doing the rainbow snippety thing. For those who don’t know, it’s a Facebook group where writers post a link to six lines from one of their works on their blog. Here’s mine, from The Stark Divide, which comes out on Tuesday. 🙂
He froze.
A kuripa drone was cruising through the valley below them.
Eddy climbed back inside the Moonjumper as quickly as he was able and pulled the door shut. “Trouble. Drone.”
Davian nodded. He powered up the little makeshift craft, and this time the power stayed on.
Maybe they’d be lucky. Maybe it wouldn’t notice them.
Maybe they’d better get their asses in gear.
See the Rainbow Snippets FB group here for more snippets.

Welcome to Rainbow Snippets!
Maybe, maybe, maybe! How lucky do they feel? (I love “and this time the power stayed on.” I’m guessing they’ve been having some mechanical issues?)
LOL yup. 🙂
Ooo, feel the tension rising!
Welcome! 😀
Great snippet. A lot of urgency in this scene, and a lot of maybes to overcome.
Thanks! 🙂 xoxo
Welcome to Rainbow Snippets! I hope you enjoy the group! <3
Great snippet 🙂 I normally don’t get into sci fi but I might give it a try 🙂
Like this a lot. Lots of urgency and tension. And congrats on the upcoming release.
I’m going with getting their asses in gear. Nice tension.
I’m thinking, yeah, asses in gear would be good! 🙂 Loved this, thank you.
Uh-oh. I’m guessing those maybes might not work out as hoped. <3
Now how did they get themselves into such a mess?
That’s a lot of maybes. Let’s hope they get out before being spotted.
Welcome to Rainbow Snippets!
Oooh, something tells me they won’t be so lucky… 🙂
