I’ve been tagged again by the lovely Penny Randall, check out her blog here. This is from my second wip TA. It’s about a wish, the fallout, and the horror that bulldozes all.
This is a scene between two friends who are discussing how life has derailed them all:
“Hey, if you’re talking about how something can crush you between walls—”
“No.” Jaw slack, Billy turned. “I mean insane. Like you’re lost inside a circus, the whole audience pelting you with rotten fruit, and all you can do is try and work your frown back into a smile and make them happy again.”
“Why try?”
His lips twitched.
I’m not going to pick 7 this time, so you can all relax. Heehee. Instead, I thought if you wanted to offer up a snippet of your work (The rules are: 7 lines down on page 77 of your manuscript and the first 7 sentences after that, with all the roughage attached.)
