Re: BLOOD WILL TELL, Urban Fantasy

Chapter 1: A Death in the Family Valeriah hurdled the locked gate and raced on down the path. Dirt? Grass? Pebbled? Sand? Cobble stone? What type of path? The cliff-top trail was closed at night for good reason; one misstep could end in a fatal fall to the jagged brown rocks and crashing waves below...

Re: Poison: Bourbon or Whisky?

Re: Forum game: Random facts about you

Another random fact is I have slight OCD. It's just little things; like no matter what I drink, or how expensive, I always leave a little in the end. I can never bring myself to finish that last mouthful :S And I can attest to how annoying it is to clean up after a visit from Heather. Having to tip...

Re: SYNOPSIS - Don't come to the House Tonight

Hi there, This is a little long for my tastes, but it is a good descriptive base. I hope this helps. Janie, Evie and Candice are three very different girls who meet in primary school and grow up together.

Re: Planner or Pantser

Hi, this is the fly by the seat of my pants writer mentioned in Heathers original post. I see every page of planed plots and character outlines Heather creates, and frankly it gives me a headache even thinking about planning my work. My current WIP was completely spontaneous.
