The Grammar Police have sent a lab-perfected assassin after me. He’s beaten me to a pulp, I’m hanging from my fingertips from a 50th story office, and he’s smirking down at me from the ledge. He says, “They’ve fitted me with eidetic memory, photographic reflexes, a second heart with an atomic core…you never had a chance, Kent.” One last card to play: I open my eReader to Echo. Magic flash. Chuck Norris appears, wearing a sleeveless denim jacket open at the front (revealing his slightly gross but glorious chest hair), and throws a roundhouse kick to the assassin’s face with the power of a thousand exploding suns. The assassin flies past me and falls to his death yelling, “HOLY BAAAaaalls…” His voice trails as he plummets to his death, and The Norris reaches down and helps me to my feet.
Until you have lab-crafted assassin insurance, best get yourself a copy of Echo. Get Echo Vol. 1 on Kindle here: Vol. 1 on Kindle. Vol. 2 on Kindle here: Vol.2 on Kindle.
“With the power of a thousand exploding suns” LOL I love it, think I’ll do a review of Echo sometime i the future.

Thank You So Much! Echo sometimes gets kinda dark, so after I’m done drafting I like to throw up a funny ad.

Thank You! I read a bit of your story…Excellent pacing! One minor suggestion: On the second paragraph I’d use a whole new sentence for “The air was fresh” then either put a comma or a semicolon after it connecting it to the next statement as the two are related. Great job and imagery! 🙂
