I thought it would be fun to post another teaser from the zombie novel I’m working on. In this scene, Sheila and Janelle are trying to convince Kira to try out for cheerleading, even though she doesn’t want to.
” … Besides, I can’t even do a cartwheel.”
“That is so sad,” says Janelle.
She and Sheila shake their heads in sympathy, as if it’s a tragedy that I don’t know how to do a cartwheel, which it’s not.
Can you do a cartwheel? I used to be able to do a wobbly one, but I was never very good at it.
Great post! I know how it feels to be at the receiving end of sympathetic head-shaking, because I *gasp* cannot do a cartwheel.
Keep the teasers coming! Such fun!
Thanks Nina! I can’t do one now either, and my friends would probably say that my wobbly attempts as a kid don’t count. BTW, I knew people that could do them one handed and no handed – they were the kind that would shake their heads.
Stephanie:
I can still do one! had to try a year or so ago in the privacy of our backyard ; )
I think you were a witness to the time when I was cartwheeling across the park and collided with Billy Myerhoff on his bike- that was extremely painful…

Heather, you can still do a cartwheel? Nice! Or should I say lucky? Then again, I think you were always better at them than I was. BTW, I don’t remember you cartwheeling into Billy Meyerhoff, but it sounds really painful!
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I had forgotten your married name, but when you talked about cartwheels in the park and Billy, I knew who you were right away.
