The rules:
1. Go to page 77 (or 7th) of your current ms
2. Go to line 7
3. Copy down the next 7 lines – sentences or paragraphs – and post them as they’re written. No cheating.
From the new Darkside novel (WIP):
"Maybe I should go say something?" I asked Leanne.
Leanne smiled at me sweetly to let me know how ludicrous the idea was. "Because you have such a way with words?"
Okay, she had a point. I seem to have a penchant for saying the wrong thing at the right time. Besides, Sabrina seemed to be handling her husband just fine without me.
I loved Alex like my own daughter--I was her protector, after all--but I wouldn't have wanted to be Josh for all the mocha frappe lattes in Starbucks. Not that I'd ever have to worry on that account.
