6 SENTENCE SUNDAY - May 8

This snippet takes place in Chapter 1 of I.O.U. SEX, when the three friends read June's high school diary and come up with the idea to search for their old boyfriends.

      Kiki rolled her eyes. "Shit, if I'd known then what I know now, things would have been very different. When I think of the staying power of those eighteen-year-old guys ...." She sighed. "Too bad we wasted it."
      Peggy put her hand over her mouth to keep her drink from spewing out with her laughter.

  6. Wonderful dialogue. Great tone in Kiki's voice. But I'm surprised Peggy's drink didn't come out her nose! Great six!

  11. Ditto what Liz said. Mature men who know what they're doing beat an hour of fumbling with a teenager.
