Hello, friends. I’m sharing another of my earliest attempts at writing fiction. Only this one is in the form of Micro-Fiction, so a very short read.

Three things I love to write about:
- Opposites
- Love
- Resilience
And that is exactly what Satin & Cinders encompasses.
I chose to tell this story with two horses – one white and one jet black. It doesn’t get much more opposite than that. Plus, I fell in love with the cover image the minute I saw it.
Blurb:
A wild black stallion has cautiously watched a beautiful white mare, from the safety of the forest for many years. He longs to be with her, and ventures close to the barn nightly to communicate with her. They share their deepest desires and secrets. Now it is winter, and the rest of the wild herd has moved on, but the stallion stays. He cannot stand the thought of being so far away from her. The scent of sweet alfalfa hay and the enticing lure of the white mare is too much for him. He must find a way to be with her. But will it be worth the risk? Satin and Cinders is a story of courage and determination.
One reader had this to say: “If you enjoy a swift read packed with much enjoyment this one is for you.”
Satin & Cinders is only ten pages long, so it can be read quickly if you are in a time crunch. I’d be honored it you’d pick it up! I truly enjoyed writing it.
This may be short, but I love it! 🌻
