Welcome to a new excerpt of Rainbow Catcher for the Weekend Writing Warrior and Snippet Sunday.
I'm
trying to get Rainbow Catcher ready and if everything goes as planed it
should be published at the end of June, so exciting!
I'm also working on the cover so you might see some changes soon.
Summary of previous episodes:
Clarissa is coughing and wanted to watch Everett Cooper on TV but Jason
refused, she is due to get her rainbow the next day but she seems
scared, to make her feel better Jason leave the TV on.
Now let's go back to business. We start just where we left off last week.
Jason had found a rainbow for her, finally, half price. He had been working hard days and nights to gather enough money to pay for it. She felt lucky to have such a nice and caring older brother.
But, even with this unexpected rainbow on her side, it was not guaranteed that the surgery would succeed, rainbow surgeries were complicated. Waves and photons, something about resonances the doctor had explained, but Clarissa had forgotten the complicated words only remembering two, ventricular hypertrophy, that's what the doctor called it when her heart went boum boum boum before going on holidays.
And only a purple rainbow would make it behave because the doctor said so, oscillation, propagation... Something. If you had asked her, she would have chosen a green rainbow, they were pretty enough and there were tons of them, that's how they made the cough medicine and the people ended up with a green voice while using it.
