We Have a Date!

October 11
I am so excited... and trying not to throw up all over my feet :{

Patience Grasshopper....

I've been getting the same feedback from a number of people about Maggie's Five. 
Questions along the line of: 
Where did this guy come from? 
How did he get there? 
 Where on earth did he go? 
Why did he go?
I wanted to stab Red with a fork!
 -No wait. That's a statement. Not a question. 
Someone really did say that though :P

Ahh...  Patience my friends... all the answers are coming...
I couldn't give it all up at once. (Maybe to my detriment, mind you ;})
Where's the fun in that?

We met Luke in Maggie’s story. Now it’s his turn.

Luke… the second in a LOVE story.

Lemons are a curious fruit. Add enough sugar and their sweet, but not enough…

My life is organised, predictable and calm, precisely the way I’ve constructed it to be.

The night I met Sophie, my perfectly constructed life, the life I’ve worked hard to create and maintain, started to crack.

Then crumble... then collapse.

I don’t want to be attracted to her. I don’t.

She’s disorganised and impulsive and messy… Shit she’s messy.

And beautiful.

I’m talking take your legs out from under you, beautiful.

And mind consuming and heart kicking and blood racing.

And gone.

Luke's 1st are Up.

Okay folks,


Luke's 1st line's
are ALL up!

I may have cheated a little... 
and I could be withholding a chapter... or two

So please, please, yes share if you like, but be respectful of my work. It's taken me a long time to get to this point. Chapter 1: 'The guys have stolen two computer chairs (you know the ones with the wheels) out of a teacher’s staff room, off the senior’s common area.' 
Chapter 2: '"Hey." Jon holds his hand out for a fist bump, "'bout ready to take off?" I ask glancing at all the crap littered around his bedroom. The dud is a slob.'
Chapter 3: 'We’ve been living in a two bedroom suite courtesy of Clockwork Towers for about three weeks. Life’s been routine, nothing overly exciting.'
Chapter 4: 'Dad, being the awesome parent that he is, has gotten me a job at Clockwork Towers.' 
Chapter 5: 'After the fastest four floor ascent in history, I secure my hold on Sophie and continue carrying her into a common area.'
Chapter 6: 'I can't believe what I've done.'
Chapter 7: "Honey? You here?"
Chapter 8: 'I wake before my alarm, reach out and take my phone from the side table and turn it off, then check for messages and missed calls out of habit.'
Chapter 10: 'We’ve decided to eat dinner at the hotel and see how things progress from there.' 
Chapter 11: '“Son, you want to come into my office for a minute please.” If Dad’s expression is anything to go by, there is definitely some serious thought bouncing going on inside his head.' 
Chapter 12: '"Whoa, hang on . . . let me just . . ."'
Chapter 13: 'I'm dozing, warm and relaxed despite the thick prickling rug .'
Chapter 14: 'I unfold a few notes from my wallet and hand them over the counter to a young guy with stringy dark hair and a bad case of acne.'
Chapter 15: 'I have the good sense to shower with Sophie this morning instead on insisting she goes first.'
Chapter 16: '"You look beautiful baby."'
Chapter 17: 'Have you ever been so guttered the wind is instantly knocked out of you and so blindsided you can think straight?' 
Chapter 18: '"What the fuck man?"'
Chapter 19: 'Jon's off to see the Wizard.'
Chapter 20: 'Loud banging on the front door has me leaping out of bed and hopping into the pair of boxers I tossed aside about a half hour ago.'
Chapter 21: '"What the . . ."'
Chapter 22: '"Do you know what I walked out to this morning?"'
Chapter 23: 'I'm relaxing on a lounge chair; my beer hanging loosely from my fingers, dangling by my side.'
Chapter 24:  'My phone’s vibrating, crawling its way across on my bare chest while I finish typing a paragraph.' 
Chapter 25: 'I had them delivered to her at work, one at a time and in no particular order.'

What Line is That Anyway!

Happy New Year!
I may have, sort of, kind of, slipped off the face of the earth for a minute there. But I'm back.

I think.

So I've been holidaying, searching for the sun (it seems to have gone missing), caught some waves (or they could have caught me). Climbed a mountain, took a chairlift, spent hours sitting in a car listening to extraordinarily bad jokes.

and i finished writing a manuscript.


Luke's Five 
is on its
 
WAY!!!! We met Luke in Maggie's story. But we didn't learn a whole lot about him. Oh, sure we know he's on the right side of ugly, very lick-able, and sweet enough to give you toothache. And, oh what an ache.

NB: This is Luke's story, not his version of Maggie's. It can be read as a stand-alone, but may make more sense if you read Maggie's Five first. You decide. 

Problem . . . 
My brain doesn't want to get out of holiday mode to finish the drafting/editing.

To help get me out of my funk, I thought it would be fun to share the first line of every chapter as I go. 
Unless it's going to give too much away, then I'll pass or give offer up different one. 
I've got to keep some secrets up my sleeve.
I could also decide that it's not rocking my world and change it.

'What Line is That Anyway!!!!!' I only decided this when I got stuck on chapter 7, so that's where we're starting.
