Here are two:
1) The splashes of gasoline numbed his lips and stung his nose as laughing voices egged each other on, daring the next indignity. Fear lanced from groin to heart, and breath was possible only in short gasps as he squinted through the burning fumes at the horrible sight of a lighted match arcing through the air towards his face.
2) Soft scratching from the darkness beneath the bed was followed by the low mewling of something intent on snatching at exposed flesh and dangling limbs. The child’s fingers convulsed as he huddled fetus-like beneath the blankets waiting for the promise of dawn and safety for another day.

I usually find a subject that interests me and then begin the long, hard job of research and writing. And I make myself write, 15 minutes, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, however long, even when I don't want to. Inspiration is great, but determination is essential.

After being teased by the brief section on Norse myth in the back of Bullfinches Mythology, I asked myself, beyond the deaths of Odin, Thor and Loki, what else happened at Ragnarok? What happened to the other gods, the goddesses, and the animals that populated Asgard?
