Friday 56…and hey, this counts as a Friday Snippets, too

The Book: Shades of Gray…a just finished WIP by yours truly.  (Hey, it was the closest…as in open on my laptop)

page 56, 5th sentence. (I gave a few more lines, too)

Scowling, he watched as she went back to her bags, opening one of the suitcases and digging around until she had some jeans and a top. Keeping her back to him and her voice low as she spoke quietly, quickly.   She got dressed as she talked, pulling jeans up over her narrow hips, a plain back t-shirt that hung too lose on her slender frame.  He caught only every few words of her hushed conversation—one that didn’t make a whole lot of sense, either.

The Friday 56 idea came from… This is What I Have to Say

The Rules:

  • Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
  • Turn to page 56.
  • Find the fifth sentence.
  • Post that sentence (plus one or two others if you like) along with these instructions on your blog or (if you do not have your own blog) in the comments section of this blog.
  • Post a link along with your post back to this blog.
  • Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
