Every week we post six lines from a work of ours, a work-in-progress or published or a recommendation of someone else’s work with at least one LGBT character. Posted at Rainbow Snippets here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/RainbowSnippets/?multi_permalinks=9840840069319300&notif_id=1694230928363144&notif_t=group_activity&ref=notif

Here’s snippet one from my story “The Faerie Reel” https://authorjeffbaker.com/2023/09/08/join-the-faerie-reel-for-friday-flash-fics-by-mike-mayak-aka-jeff-baker-september-8-2023/ as two twenty-something guys stand in a grassy lot looking at a ring of mushrooms that has been kicked apart. Oh, one of the two has green hair…

“Well, they really did a job on them, didn’t they?” the Fae said, his greenish hair glinting in the summer sunlight.

“Yeah. Look, this is all my fault,” Mac said. “If we hadn’t stayed in bed so long…”

“Hey, I liked it!” the Fae said with a grin.

“But now you’re stuck here until this ring grows back…” Mac said.

“Or until we find another one.”

Well here’s another snippet…

The Fae waved a hand dismissively. “Don’t worry. There are other ways to access Faerie. If nothing else, I can wait ‘till the Winter Solstice when I can cross through from anywhere.”

“Not on Halloween Night?” Mac said, grinning himself.

“Oh, puh-lease!” the Fae said. He tugged at the t-shirt he was wearing. Blue, with a baseball on the front emblazoned with the name ROYALS.

“And thanks for the shirt,” the Fae said. “I dunno what the Faerie Court will think about the Royals thing, though.”

Went over the six lines but the Royals gag was just too good! 😀

Next week we attend a swim meet. Till then, happy reading! —–jeff
