Sneak Peak at the new YA novel SKID…
“Megan parks the pickup in the public lot of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and I double check my yellow backpack that has my racing clothes stuffed inside. I’m good to go. Megan and me then walk towards the sunlit entrance to the Hall of Fame Museum. Black letters on the building proclaim: Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Racing Capitol of the World.
Wow. I’m really here. The track circles around us like it’s at least five miles away in every direction. I know it can’t be that far away, but looking at it makes me wonder. This place is gigantic. Overwhelming. Intimidating. What the hell am I even doing here?
Can I really sneak into the testing session without getting caught? Can I really convince them to give me a shot at driving their Formula 1 car? Can I really drive a car like that without putting myself in a wall?
Sure, I can.
But can I really? Am I kidding myself about this whole thing? Maybe I suck. Really suck.
Maybe Pete’s right. Maybe I’m not ready for this. Maybe I’ll choke.
No, not maybe. I’m choking right now. Crap.
“What’s wrong?” Megan now notices that I’ve stopped.
Look at those black metal doors peering down at me. They know I’m a fake.”
