Broken Water Glass again but a completely different image

[Brownbear]

You can't mean that a Stephen King novel is more full of suspense than the opening of my novel? I don't believe it!!

Ah, so the plot thickens. There are three of them involved. A ménage à trois. So now we have several reasons as to why and how that glass ended up being broken.

Now that I've read your intro and plot development I think you were born to write.

To continue the story might I suggest...

Christy glanced at her fiancé who lay at her feet in a pool of a blood. She was thankful that he, at least, had received a merciful death accomplished with a single bullet between the eyes. She observed that their host, a man with a truly angelic face, who had just perversely smashed his drink upon the counter top was smiling at her. Upon seeing the sharp and jagged shards of glass she feared for sanity more than her life.

I don't know about anyone else around here, but I'm eagerly waiting for Chapter 2 of the novel.

Christina's got a wilder imagination than me!!

Don't worry Donald I think it is a gender thing. We need to keep focused on reality so we can hunt and gather food properly.

lol...Don't forget Greg's contribution to the story which likely spurred my imagination..

It could have been an accidental breakage but that sharp piece of glass pointing diagonally downwards suggests conflict to me - particularly as it is directed at the two cubes (solidity). The glass spike + two ice cubes possibly represent the 3 drinkers and an argument.
