An Excerpt from a Writing Project

From Rockybado 3: The Invasion of the Naughty Blue Aliens

It was August 2012, and Brody Ingram was drawing cartoons at the dining room table. He wanted to do absolutely nothing else. It was a little hot outside, so he didn’t want to practice tennis. And, for that matter, David didn’t want to practice tennis either.

David, his brother, had just finished playing video games and got a little bored after a while of playing, so he saw Brody drawing a picture of what looked like a cat. He just wanted to find out for himself what the drawing was of.

The two boys were the only ones at home, so there was not a lot to do right now but possibly draw cartoons.

"Who is Petey Anderson?" David asked when he saw Brody drawing cartoons.
"He's someone I made up," Brody replied.
"What does he like?"
"Hot sauce, penne pasta, and Chinese food."
"And I see that he tripped on a banana peel," David remarked.
"Yes, he did," Brody answered.
"Petey looks very familiar, too."
"Oh, he does?"
"Is he a cat?"
"No. He's a dog."
