Happy April 1st, everyone! The first three parts of Sam's Yarn are available on Wattpad! Sam was a side character that stole my heart, and I thought it was only fitting that he got his own story after I finished writing To Live and To Breathe. When we first meet Sam, he appears to be an over-confident wannabe doctor who lacks the impulse control that would've let Timothy shoo him away. And yet, he has clear baggage where insults to his intelligence are concerned. It made me wonder how such an apparently bright character would've been labeled as subpar. That was the thought process that led me to write Sam's Yarn—and it became an exploration of how two seemingly incongruous aspects became united in one character. I hope you enjoy it. Sam Paine knew exactly two things: That Mrs. Oliver was in the family way, and that the bump on his head was there to remind him never to congratulate expectant mothers again. It wasn’t the first time someone had had an adverse reaction to something Sam said, but it was the first time a chain of gossip ended with a report card burning a hole in his pocket, some yarn, and an idea—an idea that maybe Sam was bound for more than counting change. P.S.
This isn't an April Fool's Day joke—Sam's birthday is April 1st. P.P.S You can read this story without having read either What Is and Could Be or To Live and To Breathe!
