With "Clenching and Wrong" I really wish you had RomCom

lol.  I just wanted to write about a raccoon clenching a bottle of schnapps on the bathroom floor of a Virginia liquor store, wondering where it all went wrong. But I’d have to wait 25 yrs for it to be HF. And I guess that’s more NF? 

You have to write the raccoon hitting rock bottom. Maybe tell the sad story of Davy Crocket's cap?

My first time attempting the 250!

Was placed in G61:

Historical Fiction
Clenching 
Wrong

My Submission was titled: Please Return To Sender

Here's an excerpt: 'she already knows'

Looking forward to reading everyone's entries!

Yay! A group 61 buddy. I hope you share your story, I’m so keen to see more ‘clenching’ 😀

G3: HF, quenching, other

"...smoothies with wings."

I swear it makes sense in context...

And how quickly it becomes a horror story. Yikes!

I was just looking for your story so I could read and comment on it, only to just realize we ended up in the same group. I must admit I'm bummed we are in the same group (since I know what an amazing writer you are) but am going we can both make it through to round 2 together! 🤞Thanks for your kind comments on my story and I hope you end up sharing yours as well.
