Beginning of Chaz Strebor - Or Is He?

Chapter One - Strange Voices


This is the beginning of a book I wrote titled Chaz Strebor -  Or Is He?

"Stop!" I yelled, as something pushed me backward and onto the ground. "Who pushed me?"

Nobody answered me, so I struggled to locate my flashlight since I couldn't see because of the dim light in the alley. I found it and turned it on, but when I moved it around to survey the area, I didn't notice anyone lurking in the alley. I decided that whoever hid in the alley disappeared when he knew I appeared because he didn't want to be seen, or maybe he hid somewhere in the alley waiting to do something else. After a few minutes, I felt something scurrying across my leg. "What was that? Who's there?" I asked, as fear started to swell up inside me.

I still didn't receive a response, so I cautiously stood up and proceeded to shine the flashlight back and forth to see if I spotted anyone waiting to attack me. I couldn't see anyone in the alley, so I decided that whoever hid from my view vanished quickly.

My books can be purchased through lulu.com.

The Robbery

This story is going to be something that I would like readers to develop. I will give you the beginning of the story, and whoever wants to add to the story can. I would like to have different readers participating in this activity. Please make sure you have correct spelling, sentence structure, paragraph structure, and punctuation.

Steven Brooks was behind the counter straightening it up when he heard footsteps approaching him. He looked up and saw a masked man pointing a gun toward him.
