The Work In Progress (WIP) Blog Tour
I've been tagged by the talented Terry Tyler to take part in this blog tour. Terry's written lots of novels and short stories and I always love her books. You should try one if you haven't yet. I'd recommend 'You Wish...' as a starting point.
Here's a link to Terry's blog post: http://terrytyler59.blogspot.co.uk/20...
The rules: Provide the link back to the post by the person who nominated you. Write a little about and give the first sentences of the first three chapters of your current WIP, then nominate four other writers to do the same.
Untitled
(Well, that's a bit of a lie as I do have a title for it, but I think I want to keep it under wraps for now!)
My current WIP is a novel. It started life as an idea for a short story, but then another idea was formed, and another, until the only way to fit everything in would be to write it as a novel.
It's part horror, part comedy, part drama, part romance, and part unknown quantity as I am still writing it so I'm not sure where this tale will lead. I'm really enjoying the writing process though, it seems that every time I pick up a pen to continue it, new ideas are born.
Chapter One
‘Can you kill it, Daddy? Please.’
Chapter Two
Abigail set the table as she did every evening.
Chapter Three
‘You’ll never guess what happened this morning when I was taking Robbie to school,’ said Roisin.

Sounds intriguing, Maria! The first line definitely grabs the reader's attention, and perhaps foreshadows some of the horror elements to come...
Brilliant! And thanks for mentioning Fusion :) xx
I love when you Brits say "Brilliant" :-)
Hi Maria,Interesting idea to highlight works in progress. Now not only am I intrigued about what you're writing, I'm wondering about the other authors as well -- which, of course, is the point.
