The Old American Artist Twitter Excerpt Series, Number III.21.2

*

To make posting my series of excerpt tweets for my novella, The Old American Artist, easier for me to post regularly (Mon-Fri), and quicker for folks to see and read, I created a reference post/page with “lots” of info that can easily be reached there 😊

That includes info on or about :

• Intro to this series
• Tweet itself on Twitter
• The image art for my cover, my painting, San Antonio Riverwalk
• About my art and it’s relationship to this literary fiction work
• The numbering system I’m using in the tweets (and why)
• Hashtag #OldAmericanArtistExcerpts – why I use it in my tweets

*

Please Note:
This marks the last tweet in my approx six month run of excerpts from my novella, The Old American Artist ❤️ I hope to have a short post announcing this Friday, Feb 05’21. And then, repeat the series of excerpt – with the addition of light commentary about the excerpt. Commentary will vary depending on the topic, memory and/or creative application in my life.

Tomorrow, February 4th, marks the 41st anniversary of when my wife Sheila (of whom the Rosetta character is loosely to tightly woven from, depending ☺️) and I met. I hope to repeat that excerpt and give some commentary on that excerpt. Kinda a combo, sneak preview of the commentary-added series, and anniversary of meeting 💕

The excerpt post of meeting Rosetta is at –
https://felipeadanlerma.com/2020/08/11/the-old-american-artist-twitter-excerpt-series-number-i-10-3/ – still brings a big smile to my face 😊

Tweet excerpt,

Closer, they realized the woman and child by their door must be Anna and her mother Nicolette, waiting for them. Rosetta broke loose and ran toward the house hollering against the wind, “Hello! Hello! It’s me, Rosetta!” And the two figures moved toward her carrying a basket until they reached each other with great cries of greeting.
