Welcome friends, followers, and Weekend Writing Warriors!
Still sharing snippets of the new stories I wrote this summer. This was also inspired by one of my A-Z challenge ideas: Neural Rewiring. Nathan is the leader of a stunt aerobatics flying team, and the team is practicing.
It took him half a minute to get the shudders under control before he climbed out of his bird.
They were all waiting for him when he got down to the tarmac. “We can’t go on like this, Nathan.” Karen said.
“You want to change the routine?” he offered weakly. His routines were the pride and joy of his life, but even that would be easier than…”
“Hell no,” Seth muttered darkly. “The routine’s amazing, buddy. We just need to find another pilot who can fly them.”

Uh-oh. I was as shocked as Nathan by that response. I feel bad for him, but you’ve gotta do what’s best for the team. *wobbly stiff upper lip*

Painful. I’ve been there/done that. A cliff hanger. I’ll tune in next week to see what happens next.

That’ll no doubt be a blow to Nathan’s self esteem.

Poor Nathan. The fact they they still love flying his *routines* isn’t much comfort. An excellent excerpt, wonder what will happen next.
