Blog Sister, Tracey Livesay tagged me for a fun game and explained it this way:
"My friend, Debra Kristi, recently posted a blog
about a new meme making the rounds. It’s called “Look” and the rules
state that I do a search for the word in my current work-in-progress and
paste the surrounding paragraphs. Afterwards, I tag others and the game
is afoot."
I love a good game, so here's my section from my current Work-In-Process - "Aces Down":
He shook his head, though he dropped the cuffs into my hand.
"You'd better hurry up with those. Hawkins won't stay down long."
"Really?" I muttered as I maneuvered one pair over Hawkins' feet
and up around his ankles. I yanked them tight and then rolled Hawkins onto his
stomach. He was heavy as a damned log. After I secured his hands behind his
back, I pushed myself to my feet, stepped over him, and leaned over to look at
Tristan's wound. As far as I could tell, the bleeding had slowed. Thank the
stars for shapeshifter healing.
"How're you doing?" I asked, looking at him to make sure he
was in full control of his wolf. We needed to get him inside, but I didn't
think he could do it without a little help. Help that would put me way inside
the wolf's personal space.

ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Joanna! I'm delighted to help spread the word about your poetry and I'm looking forward to the Thursday Poetry & Jazz event. I'm having a lot of fun with Aces Down and hope to have it ready to begin submitting soon.
DeleteEGAD! I just discovered my name with the 'Tag' when I came from Katharine's blog to see your entry. Guess once seen can't ignore?
ReplyDeleteWill have to do some searching….. and let you know…..
Great snippet you put up tho'!
Hey there, Shawna! Can't wait to see what you post. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I'm having way too much fun with my contemporary paranormals. Wait, there's no such thing as too much fun, is there? Guess I'm just finding myself playing there more than expected. As for your snippet, I'll be waiting...
DeleteLove a good shifter story. Can't wait to read more. Write fast :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nara! I'm almost done, working on continuity and stuff. BTW, Collector's Item, coming soon at The Wild Rose Press is a shifter story as well. Check my Books tab for a bit more info.
ReplyDeleteSounds great! Is it related to Collector's Item?
ReplyDeleteHi Leah! Aces Down is in the same world, but doesn't actually "touch" the Collector's Item storyline. Aces Down is still trying to decide what it wants to be when "it grows up" a novella or a novel. LOL!
