Oops! Running a bit late for Six Sentence Sunday today!
Today I thought I would show you the first six sentences of my Nano novel. It’s a sequel to the novella I wrote in June for Camp Nano.
A stabbing pain shot down both legs, and I collapsed back to the cold, damp sand. I gritted my teeth, my son did not need to see his mother in pain, though he must’ve sensed it for he dragged himself over to me, his tail leaving an imprint in the sand. My sweet boy, put a pudgy arm around my shoulders, his chubby face tight with concern. Though I did not mean to, I threw him off as another bolt shot up my spine.
“No.” A moan escaped my lips, as wave after wave of agony swept over my body.
I’ll post more snippets of my story over the coming weeks. Enjoy! 😀
(And incase you’re wondering how the writing is going – we went away camping for the weekend, and DS missed out on doing today’s writing, though he did manage 53 words yesterday. I managed 1000 words yesterday, and am just starting today’s writing now, at 9:30pm… I only need about 900 words today to get back on track, as I wrote so much on Day 1, and a little extra on Day 2. Wish me luck!!) 😀
Don’t forget, I have four copies of The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton to give away this month, all you have to do to get your name in the draw is comment on any post! (For more info check out this post)
Looking good, Heather! I can’t wait to read the full version!
THanks Batsy!! 🙂 Same goes for yours! 😀
If that is only the first six sentences I can hardly wait to read the rest. I am sure like all your other stories it is going to be good.
Thanks Karen! 😀
Good luck in NaNoWriMo! Keep it up 🙂
Thanks! 🙂
It’s good to see the Red Sky world again. I love the way you’ve jumped straight into it.
