Teaser Tuesday #3: Grasping at Straws

I've been bogged down with basically nothing for a month now. That is to say, I've not really been able to write. I add a couple of words here and there, but nothing seems to flow. Then, about a week ago, the characters from my old WIP started coming back in my mind. I started seeing scenes in my head with them, and got a little excited. Since then, I've tried to rewrite some things in that novel. Here is one scene. It's not all that great, and it doesn't really say too much, but it's something I added. I decided to change some relationships around, etc. This is me trying to do that. :)

In this scene, we meet Cassandra Barret (well, she showed up in the previous scene, but we didn't actually meet her). And, we also find out why Fred is called Fred...and possibly how she got her full name. ;)
As usual, it's rough.


Snipped. Thanks for the comments, guys!!!

I love how Aaron's the reason for her nickname and it shows just how long they've been friends.

This is the first of your teases that I've read, but I like your writing style. Its very fluid...and I think Fred is a cute name for a girl. :)

I might be one of those few people who like the name Winifred :)

Love the interaction, especially the dialog about the name.
