Two years of me and LJ.  I think it's going to be a forever kinda thing.

In celebration I'm going to...

Post an excerpt!

Ha, you knew that was coming, didn't you?

Okay, so I searched through my WIP last night but had some trouble finding the perfect snip.  I wanted something full of action or suspense.  I couldn't find it.  You know

Happy Blogversary, Shea! I love this snippet...excellent emotion and tone. Nice characterization too, I want to know why she's so unlucky and always thinks she does the wrong thing.

Thank you! :-D

Very well done. Your use of words to paint the picture was quite artistic in this snip.

Aspen's a bit more observant than past characters of mine. :-)

Ooh, nice. As with the other samples you've shared, you're great at packing emotion into a scene. (Actually, have you ever considered a blog post on writing emotion? Some of us get called on not having enough...)

[meredith_wood]

That's not a bad idea. I'll try to get a post up on it this week.

Thank you for the compliment!

Happy Blogiversary! I'm not sure when mine is since I came to LJ several months before I started my fandoria journal. But wow... two years already huh?

Great snip, the whole scene it belongs in is great.

It doesn't feel so long does it?

I almost posted their dance lesson, but changed my mind at the last minute. The tone was set in this section and I was afraid it wouldn't come off right out of context.

It is a sad passage, but it is very well written. When you finish this, I definitely want to read it, okay?

I'll be more than happy to send the file your way when it's ready. Thanks!
