I was tagged for a WiP game by a sister blogger with a fantastic book, Luccia Gray. Check out her blog, Rereading Jayne Eyre (http://lucciagray.com/all-about-jane-eyre/) and her book, All Hallows at Eyre Hall. She’s currently finishing the next book of her trilogy, Twelfth Night at Eyre Hall.
The rule: Post the first sentence of the first three chapters of your current WiP.
My current WiP is the next book in the Rhe Brewster mystery series, Death in a Dacron Sail. I’m currently doing the line edits, so what you read is what you will get with this book.
Chapter 1
The lobster boat rocked violently against the pier as I backed down the ladder and extended my foot onto its heaving deck.
Chapter 2
The midnight shift in the ER at Sturdevant was normally quiet, but it was a Friday night and a full moon, which meant a lot of loonies would be out.
Chapter 3
Bob Morgan proved as pesky as ever, and I had three messages, all from him, on my cell phone when I finished my shift at the hospital around 8 PM.
I hope you’ve read the first book in my series, Death in a Red Canvas Chair. Death in a Dacron Sail will be out late this fall. Look for it! I’m currently working on Death by Pumpkin. Think on that…
I’m nominating my four of my favorite authors to carry on this WiP hop: R.M Byrd (http://byrdwords.wordpress.com/), Terry Tyler (http://terrytyler59.blogspot.com/) , Stepheny Houghtlin (http://stephenyhoughtlin.com/author/stephenyhoughtlin/), and Trisha Sugarek (http://www.writeratplay.com/ .
Do check them out!
Loved reading your first lines! I’m looking forward to reading the next installment of Rhe’s adventures!
I am SO THERE for your next book, Noelle! I can’t wait. Seriously.
Thanks, Kate. Not long now…
Great lines Noelle. I think I might just have to have a rest and do some fun reading or I’ll have three to catch up on.
Thanks, Irene. You are a very busy, high quality blogger!
You are too kind Noelle. Unfortunately I’m enjoying it and I love looking at old photos.
Thanks so much for the tag, Noelle! I shall do my offering soon, with a link back to yours xx
You’re most welcome! Anything I can find out about what you’re writing!
Love this “it was a Friday night and a full moon, which meant a lot of loonies would be out.” Perfect way to set the mood and create tension.
Thanks, Sylvia. Now that I am getting close to having the second book printed, I’m getting excited. Lots to do to market it!
