I’m approaching a maximum overdrive with my robot sensors and other parts this week concerning the blog. I apologize for being a day late and a few dollars short with 100 word song but a writing deadline and the release of my novel, The Ballad of Helene Troy have overwhelmed me. I can’t believe I wrote almost every day this week. Deb aka @debIsee aka Ms. Wyoming wrote more of her fantastic serial, Vivid Black this week with her 100 word song entry. It was an excellent interpretation of Rene’s choice, Billy idol’s John Wayne. I’m the last cowboy in the meme/prompt world that loves when my writing pardners serialize. It’s harder to write that way. I appreciate the talent. Leeroy asked Deb to choose this week’s tune. She went with Tom Petty’s I Won’t Back Down, from his finest CD, in my opinion, Full Moon Fever. It’s also perfect for my 100 words this week as we head back to Jake, Augusta, Violet, and Mallory in my short story, Soul To Body.

Violet and Augusta stood side-by-side in the center of the living room. Violet chewed on her upper lip. Augusta crossed her arms. Their faces burned rage that Jake had seen in his late wife, Camille. He kept his eyes on the women while addressing the controversy standing quiet in the kitchen.
“Mallory, I’d like to call rain check on tonight. I’m not feeling well and I have some things to talk about with my family. I’m sorry.”
His gaze stayed on the two sets of angry blue eyes lasered back. Mallory caressed Jake’s arm as she whispered “goodbye for now”.
As always you have one week to write 100 words inspired by the song chosen, I Won’t Back Down, by Tom Petty and Deb. Please tell a friend or fifty and link up your excellent response on the Mr. Linky provided by Leeory, below. We didn’t have a lot of responses last week. Let’s get back on track with many more. Thank you for being patient with my neuroses with the book.

First of all I like the new colour on your Blog.
Now for the best part, the ongoing story that has my favorite character in it, Jake. He’s gained a bit of strength in his 100 bit bites of growth potential. He’s taking care of what he needs to (though I will be curious to see how he handles such strong, intense women, who both bare the eyes of the love of his life).
Nicely done Lance.
thank you k….for your honor and benefit i will amp up this story after I get the book out.
Oh that will be a wonderful treat! The part of authoring that you are in the process of can be very energy consuming. Congratulations m’Friend, you have earned your paper wings!
This is getting good!

Vi and Gus need to go all spider monkey on that girl.
I was planning on doing “100 Words” as soon as I saw it here and this is the perfect week to start. I have a major weakness for Tom Petty. As I type this, I’m wearing a bracelet made of Tom Petty’s and Mike Campbell’s guitar strings from the Mojo tour. No kidding. Ask Nancy Davis Kho…with me, it’s all “Petty this, Petty that.”
A major musical influence. Great to find another musically infused blog!
When I picked this song I did so for the benefit of my story but I soon realized, your story at the point it was would also benefit from it. I love Tom Petty. His lyrics are real and this song speaks to everyone.
Now, I want Jake to stand up to these gals. That’s what they need. The emotional build up in your last bunch of posts is intense. I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for him to either blow up or lay down the “law.”
thanks deb…i agree with every word…i appreciate your song this week
Congrats on your book release, Lance!
I finally after 3 rewrites got this week done. But too late. Mr Linky denied me. But it’s out there….
brilliant!
