It does seem like the reader is missing out on some details, like Jordyn said, but I think you wrote this very well.<br /><br />Lol, now I really want to read the rest of the story!YA Book Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05537139181874836166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31135028.post-68854943232801631722009-11-24T14:08:47.752-08:002009-11-24T14:08:47.752-08:00Oh, I really like this!

I am looking forward to seeing what comes next and to finding out all the ins and outs of this story.

I chose this excerpt because, well, it went the best with the song and I cut it small enough to fit in the blog but still tell enough of the story. I do need to work on connecting the two MCs in the prologue. I have rewritten this opening scene several times without being satisfied with it. It still needs lots of work. Thank you for giving me soemthing to focus my attention on.Petuniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14059145750315789676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31135028.post-6790352652738527642009-11-22T19:15:42.849-08:002009-11-22T19:15:42.849-08:00It feels like an odd part of the novel to excerpt ...It feels like an odd part of the novel to excerpt because we have no idea of Catherine & Cissy's relationship (how they know each other, aside from loving the same man). It seems a little out of place (to me) for Cissy to start telling about all about her late husband without more of an opening.Jordynhttp://tencentnotes.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31135028.post-63590759195427161932009-11-21T04:40:50.890-08:002009-11-21T04:40:50.890-08:00LOL ... that last comment was from me!
