What the mirror showed

in 1: The Story,Write A Book With Me

They got their shock when they looked in the mirror in Story—Kettan, Will, and Emerald. And they’re starting to figure out a part of the puzzle that has eluded them until now.

A straight 20 minutes, 603 words tonight, 32,894 words total. And I’m pretty sure I know where I’ll take this tomorrow.

It came together pretty well for me tonight.

What about you?

506 words. The protagonist has just been through an eye-opening experience, and is seriously reconsidering whether he can in good conscience keep dating his girlfriend. Also, whether the world might not be better off if wolves ate her.

Ouch. That’s one for relationship counseling, lol. Sounds intriguing!

Okay…considering feeding one’s girlfriend to the wolves suggests and interestingly antisocial side to your hero…

Guess the proof will be in whether he does it.

621 words. The sand tiger leaves an obvious trail for the girl to follow. But will the girl remember the spell she laid on the tiger so long ago?
I wanted the tiger to awaken something in her conscience. I’m not sure if I got it right, but if not I’ll try again in revision.

Yeah. I know that feeling. Had that going on when I wrapped What the Dead Guy Saw.

Just remember—you can fix ANYTHING in revision.

Revision :) That concept that has set me free.
And I’m curious to see if ‘What the Dead Guy Saw’ changes in revision! Interesting.

Sat down and poured out my frustations in part of a scene where my MC almost gets kidnapped by a foul smelling man but ‘saved’ by the people who took from someone else….803 words. A strange day at the office what can I say???
