In response to pensitivity’s Three Things Challenge #M391
FRIGHT, HALLELUJAH, CINDERS

It was fright that kept me from submitting my novel to a publisher!pp
I sang hallelujah when the acceptance letter came in the mail!
I burned the letter to cinders upon discovering the publisher to be a vanity press!
