Hello and thank you for coming to read my last Six Sentence Sunday post! It’s been a pleasure spending my Sundays with you all. My first SSS post was on October 17, 2010, back when I wasn’t yet published, and only 30 people participated each week.
As this is the last week of the official Six Sentence Sunday, it is the last time I will have an SSS post. I will not be participating in any other Sunday memes. I am looking forward to sleeping in, and enjoying the following Sundays with my family. BUT, I am participating in a Wednesday meme called Hump Day Hook. I hope many of you will follow me there.
HUGE thanks to Sara Brookes who tirelessly ran the Six Sentence Sunday blog week after week, making sure the posts always went up, and checking to make sure we all followed the rules. 
Thank you for allowing me a platform to share my work, even back when I wasn’t published. Thanks to Dee Carney and the other “originals”. Thank you also to all of the administrators who helped Sara out.
And thank YOU for coming to read my posts week after week. It has been an honor.
My last six is from ACCIDENTAL ROMANCE, a new adult contemporary western romance which released from Decadent Publishing on January 15
along with MADE FOR HER.
This six is from near the end of the story.
The first line of dialogue comes from Leanne’s father.
“Marnie and I are moving off the farm.”
Murmurs traveled from one side of the tent to the other while Leanne continued to stare in shock. I thought he was going to keep the farm for me. Her bottom lip trembled. Why hadn’t he told her beforehand? Her wedding wasn’t the place.

Six Sentence Sunday for the last week or follow #sixsunday on twitter.
Oh I hope something really good (Like a gift) comes straight after that. Thanks for sharing your work through SSS. I’ve enjoyed my Sunday reads very much.
Great snippet as always Jessica, l’ll miss these Sunday snippets! Take care.

Nice six — and a shocking revelation for her too. I’ve been doing SSS for almost a year and it’s been wonderful, meeting so many fun people, and adding great stuff to my TBR pile I wouldn’t have known about otherwise. Thanks for the heads up about the Hump Day Hook.

Great six! but please let me point out that Six Sentence Sunday was Sara Brookes’s brainchild. I simply hung on.
Dee Carney recently posted..Six Sentence Sunday
Because telling her before hand would ruin the surprise silly.
Great story, Jessica!
Layna Pimentel recently posted..Six Sentence Sunday and a note of thanks.
I haven’t gotten to this point in the story yet, but I have a hunch I know what’s going to happen next. You’ve done a great job with this story, Jessica. I’m very pleased I met you though the 6SS.

What a shock for her! I feel so bad for her. Excellent six.
It’s a shame to see the SSS end. I’ll definitely be checking out the Hump Day Hook, so thanks for sharing that tip! I love these things! It was a pleasure getting to know you, Jessica!

This final excerpt nicely captures a moment that will undoubtedly affect Leanne profoundly.
I’m going to miss Six Sentence Sunday and especially yours, Jess. See you on FB and twitter, and a meme or two. I’ll be posting Drabbles on @Aheila_ ‘s blog. She provides a new prompt every Monday.
Wonderful six, as usual! I’ve enjoyed getting to know your writing on SSS.

This is a helluva story! I think I first met you here, at Six Sunday. But you know I’ll see you around, Jess!
Argh! Why do people drop their own bombshells at weddings? Happens too often. Poor Leanne. Enjoyed reading your sixes, Jessica.

Oh cripe, what a place to stop! Love how you zero in on her shock, that adds an edge to this snippet.
I’ve got you bookmarked, so you’ll see me again. Often, probably

Oh I like this piece, and it’s so fitting that it be near the end of the story given today. I’ve really enjoyed reading your snippets and hope to stay in touch. That Hump Day Hook sounds interesting. Do you happen to know of it’s rules?

It’s been a pleasure reading your Six Sentences every week! I totally get what you’re saying about having Sunday mornings back…but I’ll miss stopping by your blog for a (quick) spot of very good reading! Today’s excerpt was great, sad and intriguing – I really feel for your character! Best wishes!

Wonderful six, Jessica!
Thank you for all the comments on my blog over the past months. I’m not sure how you guys (admins) divided the linky list to check blogs, but you usually visited mine. It was nice reading your comments; I’ll miss seeing them. I’m grateful for all your time and work.
Good luck with your writing journey!

thank you for your huge support. We live so close yet never met. I hope we keep in touch. Just shows to go the wonderful people who we meet who we never would have otherwise. The joys (and horrors) of the internet.

Holy cow (no pun intended) what a blow… and on her wedding day? Something really awesome needs to happen because that is something she’ll never net go!

Hello turning point. Her emotions are sparking right of the page. Well done. Hump Day Hook, love that. It’s fun to read about all the different options that have developed. I’m looking forward to reading more of your snippets, for sure.

Wow, what a bombshell to drop at her wedding! Way to make us want more, Jess. Nice six!
Does seem a bit of a bombshell. Perhaps they’re moving off the farm so that she can move in?
Goran Zidar recently posted..Six Sentence Sunday #64 – Revenant (Part 44)
Nice bombshell and at her wedding. Poor girl. Wishing you all the best Jessica.
