#WeWriWa ~ Stevie-girl and the Phantom Student only #99cents ~ Enter the Rafflecopter, too!

Hello Weekend Warriors!  This week's snippet is from Stevie-girl and the Phantom Student, book two in the Phantom Series.  I've had to do some horribly creative editing to get this paragraph into 8 sentences.  See what you think...Jase and Stevie are passing by the old schoolhouse:


            Jase stopped talking and followed my gaze.  “What is it, did you see something again?”
            I shook my head; I didn’t know how to describe the awful feeling of sadness that had washed over me at the sight of the school's tall, brick arch.  “I don’t know,” I whispered.  “I didn’t see anything, but I feel something.”
            “You never finished telling me about your dream," he said.
           “There was a girl with long white hair—wild white hair—and she was standing beneath an archway just like that one.  And she was swishing back and forth like a little girl’s rag doll in the hands of a big mean bully.” 

Okay, folks, that's all for this week.   For more WeWriWa Snippets, go HERE!  And don't forget to scroll down to enter the Rafflecopter giveaway - books, gift cards, and swag!  Good luck! Oh, and by the way, all 3 Phantom books are on sale for 99 cents each!
