Excerpts


Below are just a few snippets from the works within Anything Prose. Stay tuned for more, as we will be adding new teasers closer to launch. Enjoy!





"...A steaming Jacuzzi awaited under a lavender-pink sky. Ella’s eyes darted from one male to the next, scoping out her potential date. Was it the guy with the three-foot dreadlocks emerging from his head? Maybe the guy sipping from two beer cans simultaneously? Perhaps, it was the one being swooned over for playing with the dogs?
“There he is…”
Ella followed Sophia’s finger to the jacuzzi where three candidates awaited..." 
A skinny boy-ish man with glasses and a mop, his friend, another mop minus the glasses and a hunk with rippling muscles and the whole nine yards who just happened to be talking with annoying Anne from book club. So which mop was it?..."

"...As much as I want to work on “us”, this version of “us” only works as long as the main character in our little play is you.  I feel like I’m the best supporting actress, but you are definitely the Star.  Perhaps I have been a major contributing factor to that as well.  After all, I have been so intrigued by you, and I adore you, and am “into” you so very much, that I have chosen to ignore how little attention you actually pay to me, and how little affection you show to me.  Yet you shower it generously on others daily.  Have I made it seem acceptable somehow?  Have I conveyed that I am okay with it, that I don’t expect more, or I don’t need your affection and returned adoration to be happy?  If I have, then I must still feel the need to be cautious around you.  Why?  I crave you so much more than I have evidently made you aware..."
