Every week we post six lines from a story or ours, a work in progress or a recommendation of a work of someone else’s, that has LGBT characters. Posted at Rainbow Snippets here; https://www.facebook.com/groups/963484217054974

To return to my snippeting, I’m following up on the story I posted on my blog in May to celebrate my eighth anniversary (!!!) of posting weekly flash fiction stories. It referenced “Wild Horses,” one of the earlier stories, from 2017, https://authorjeffbaker.com/2017/02/19/monday-flash-fics-february-20-2017-wild-horses/ one that a lot of people liked.

Here’s a bit from “Wild Horses.”

Their love was forbidden.

Zavid and Zannic were both pledged to serve their own Masters, but they were able to be together when their Masters met to race their horses. Zavid and Zannic were able to grab a few moments together in the stables or in the paddock. And the horses, who know more than men think they do, took pity on them, for they knew that Zannic’s Master was planning to move out of the country, and that Zannic and Zavid would never see each other again.

And the Harras called upon the Horse Lords who transformed the two lovers into horses.

One of the first LGBT stories I posted, and one of the first of my World Of Three Moons stories. Back when my flash stories were a lot shorter! Zavid and Zannic would get referenced again over the years.

Next week, something of a sequel! —-jeff.
