First lines from works in progress.


"Breathe. Breathe, damn you!"
-- "Inferno" (short story)

“Once, we were nomads.”
-- "Waterwitch" (short story)

Wren Valere had spent hours, more than once, waiting in a cramped, close situation, anticipating the perfect moment to move on a job.
-- Retrievers #4 (title pending inspiration)

After endless weeks of being at the mercy of tide and wind, Manon knew that she would never love the sea.
-- THE GREENING (aka The New Project)


there are a few other things, but these are what are on the front burner...

Great work. First lines scare the crap out of me, sometimes to the point where I'll write PLACEHOLDER FOR FIRST LINE and just go on.

I can't believe you can write so many separate stories at once!!!! Holy moly!

Btw, apparently moly is an herb. I've never heard of it, have you????

Yeah well, I tend not to direct plays while I'm writing, either... :-D

Actually I have, although be damned if I can remember in what context. I'd always associated it with garlic, but then, I like to associate most things with garlic...

Yes, but they're two different processes. *g* I have enough trouble keeping one story straight in my head. I'm impressed!

Yes. Garlic is good. I suppose I could always look up moly in a dictionary .. *g*

And, incidentally, those are really great opening lines.

I have no trouble with opening lines. Or closing ones, for that matter. It's the in-between that scares the bejezus out of me.
