Six Sentence Sunday More, More, More, Sail To Italy!

Thank you for all the wonderful comments last week! You're fabulous!

Check out the other six sentence excerpts here.

And happy July 4th! In Arizona, we're not supposed to set off fireworks, and I hope people obey the law, since half the state is on fire already.

I'm celebrating the fact that Sail To Italy and Sail From Italy are independent from the digital format and can be purchased in a gorgeous paperback. ;) Still in both -- really inexpensive -- digital formats, too!

In this scene from Sail To Italy, Princess Noreena has set the terrifying Pirate Pierre the unexpectedly difficult task of tracking down her long-lost second cousin, who probably lives in Corsica. Witness the struggle and its silly resolution!

Pierre was going mad. He resorted to the very last hope.
“Pardon me, ma’am, but do you know an Antonio Carlucci?” Pierre asked without much hope in the town square.
“Why, yes. I’m meeting him here, today, now. What do you want of him?” said the nice lady.

Next week: more from The Seven Noble Knights of Lara! ¡Olé!
