But I assure you Jordan was doing the...True, Keira. But I assure you Jordan was doing the assuming. LOL! <br /><br />Mudding is when men and women take their four-wheel-drive vehicles off road to an abandoned site, usually one that has a lot of turned up ground and hills and especially after a rain. Been several times myself, and it can be scary. It always felt as though the truck were going to fall (hood over trunk) forward, which I'm sure they do. My husband used to love doing it in his Jeep, but now we prefer to just take our mountain bikes off road. Thank you for stopping by and commenting. :)Carmen DeSousahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08835462755654747169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119615232600399164.post-33239599972197143272012-11-12T06:00:41.508-05:002012-11-12T06:00:41.508-05:00The beauty of SSS.

Although, I do go back in and add a little more after SSS is over, especially since one of my visitors though that my heroine was one of those people who judge people by their accents and not what's inside. Thanks for stopping in, Monique.

And sadly it's true. But most of my characters are good ol' country folks, and they are far from stupid. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you'll read the entire excerpt now that SSS is over. :)Carmen DeSousahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08835462755654747169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119615232600399164.post-20285382906311646252012-11-11T15:14:05.811-05:002012-11-11T15:14:05.811-05:00 I guess she sold him on country girls - well trav...

Sadly, some people do hear an accent and slow drawl and automatically assume the person is not intelligent. <br /><br />But in Jaynee's defense, he did the assuming; she never once implied...but of course it's hard to show all of that in six sentences. <br /><br />As always, I'll add the rest of the sample after SixSunday is over, so please stop back in. :)<br /><br />Carmen DeSousahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08835462755654747169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119615232600399164.post-50206442820874238452012-11-11T06:45:55.162-05:002012-11-11T06:45:55.162-05:00It always irritates me when someone automatically ...It always irritates me when someone automatically assumes less of me because I prefer to live in the country. He must really like her, because my response would have been quite different. It shows some nice insight into his character. Good six. By the way, he's right, mudding is a blast :)Jess Schirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04930756756945812094noreply@blogger.com
