Thanks for stopping by!
Another one from Playing For Keeps...
Ryan rinsed off quickly, then grabbed a towel from the shelf, and wrapped it around his waist.
After wiping away the steam on the mirror with a sweep of his hand, he took a long hard look at himself. He rubbed his fingers across the stubble on his chin. God, he needed a shave or maybe he needed a new face. Man, I’m getting old. Where was the young rookie that used to gaze back at him? Not that he’d trade places with him - that kid didn’t know shit.

Great six. Tells us so much about Ryan. Love shaving scenes. Love 'em even more when the heroine watches!
PS: the guy in the picture...a leeeeetle too many muscles on that one!
Great internal look at Ryan! :)
Yep - I agree Taryn but could't find anything better
There's something so sexy about a guy shaving.
What is it about a shaving scene? I'm with Taryn on this one. Something about it is hot! This is a great snippet, packed with characterization.
Love a more mature hero. And a shaving scene. Great six, Liz.
Wow, that man's got some arms!
And great excerpt, loved the internal peek.
'Didnt know shit' LOL
I'll take experience over no gray hair anyday. ;)
From the wrap of a towel, to the thought about his ignorant youth, love the show of this muscular guy.
Great 6! Nice being able to get into his head
Great insight into his thoughts. And perfect for Superbowl Sunday!
Terrific six! The last sentence pulled me in and made me want to read more.
Can't stop looking at his arms. Great six. I like a more mature hero too.
that's the twist, isn't it? we all want both our youth and the years of wisdom - great snippet
Looks good to me with or w/ the mirror or towel. Fine 6-6 pack, that is.
I enjoyed that. Love the internal monologue.
The six were a perfect look into Ryan. Scene was great.
Great characterization here. Really well done.
I liked this! It was real and paced well. Showed his emotions within the normal morning routine. Good job!
Wow, so much story in those six. Great job.
Good six. Like the sort of weary self;knowledge.
ha ha! "That kid didn't know shit" nice!
Loved that last line! I know how he feels.
Hehe, I like this guy. Even without the photo ;)
Yeah, we all thought like that at one point or another, and I'm not even all that old yet. I wonder how stupid I'll think I was when I'm actually old.
