Thanks everyone for stopping by! Today's six sentences come from my latest published short story "Some Assembly Required". Poor Aston gets himself into a big mess of a situation, when he stumbles across a planet where things aren't always as they seem:
I walked out and bumped into Libby on the top step. Instinctively, I wrapped my arm around her waist before she fell.
“What do you think you’re doing?”
I looked up. Ford stood between the containers and a second hovercraft that looked like a flatbed cargo truck. His arms were crossed and his face burned red.

Poor Aston...
So, there you have it...if you want to read more, the entire piece is up over at Residential Aliens. And of course, I have several other published short stories which are linked over at my website, most of which are free (you can also purchase Dead or Alive, a full collection of Aston West short stories via ResAliens Press, in both print and e-formats)
Oh this is interesting. Don't think I've read this Aston yet. I'd better click across and do so. :)
