Hello everyone!
Update: I’m currently working on a short story collection, and I wanted to share a little excerpt of one of them with you guys! I’d love to hear what you think of it! So don’t be shy to let me know in the comments! 🙂
Warning: It has a dark Valentine spirit to it 😉 🖤
Here goes!
Excerpt of a short story
200 words
Written by Audrey Francis-Plante
NOTES
The first note came on February the 1st. It fell out of my locker the moment I opened it. It was written in thick red ink on a black piece of cardboard.
Roses are dead
Violets are too
Not exactly the heartwarming type. But I didn’t make a big deal out of it; I just threw it in the trash on my way to Spanish.
The next day, I found another one inside my daily planner.
Soon they all die
And so will you
I put the note on my best friend Jenny’s desk when I joined her in our chemistry class.
She read it. “That’s … lovely?”
“It’s the second note I get. It looks like it was written on an old typewriter, and I thought, Jen has one of those. Maybe she thought it was a cool Valentine’s prank or something. So? Is it you?”
“Geez, I’m not that morbid. What did the other note say?”
“Roses are dead, violets are too.”
“Holy crap. I don’t know which one is worst.”
“This one,” I said, pointing at the note on her desk. “Definitely this one.”
That’s what I thought until I got the third note on the following day.
Find who I am
Before I find you
And that’s my sneak peek!
Did you guys like it?

Have a wonderful day, everyone!
