Excerpt: New Story [Title undecided]
Page 3 - [MAIN CHARACTER 1] smirked, rolled her eyes, and thought, “It’s gonna take a lot more than a smoke and a soda to get rid of all that ugly.”
Page 4 - [MAIN CHARACTER 1], on the other hand, was simply taunting [HER EX-BOYFRIEND] with alluring glances like that of a bad music video.
Page 20 - He was prepared for [MAIN CHARACTER 1] to say no, she didn’t seem like one of the typical sluts he’d dated in the past, but he hoped she’d feel the same way.
Page 22 - As [MAIN CHARACTER 1] left, news of that slap across her ex-boyfriend’s face spread like wildfire. It was the slap heard ‘round the block!
Page 35 - He didn’t know her name, but he remembered seeing her once or twice long before seeing her this time. Now, she was a new face, but definitely not a pretty face. She was quite ugly, actually, and her face looked melted.
Page 60 - [UGLY YOUNG STRUMPET] was hoping to gain some kind of pity from [MAIN CHARACTER 2]’s mother, but his mother was indeed a brick house woman.
