Six Sentence Sunday (2)

It's my first official SSS week. Enjoy!

--

“Come.” He did not stop as he passed Valence, his face straight, decision made. Gerad met the king at the doors. “Falistar knows where the line between good and evil divides.” He put a hand on the door and glanced back. “He will weigh your heart.”

Blogfest Alert: The Nature of Magic Blogfest

I'm definitely excited about Tessa's next blogfest, but she's not alone in this one. Laura B. Diamond is your second host for the fest. Grab the banner here, or from Tessa's Blurb.

The objective is:

Write or share something you've already written that, to you, shows the nature of magic. It can be an excerpt from your WIP, something you've written especially, poetry, whatever strikes your fancy. It just needs to show the nature of magic as it exists for you or for those you write about.

Being a fantasy fiction writer, I'll likely pull it from my manuscript, Bond of Darkness. Stop on by her blog on March 26 to post, then swing by again between March 30-April 2 to vote for finalists.

Peace and Writing Love,

Six Sentence Sunday

I know my six sentences aren't official (because I didn't sign up and I just learned about it), but I'm just posting because I can. I plan to sign up the correct way when the next SSS post goes live on Wednesday, or as often as I'm able. Love the banner!

This week's six sentences come from my epic fantasy, BOND OF DARKNESS.

--

Valence thought on Melana’s words. Beauty and deceit all in one package. She helped him because he was dying, but she wouldn’t withhold information to the king whom she had sworn her fealty.

Gerad was handsome, quick-witted and utterly self-assured of himself. It was clear Gerad didn’t expect King Pallanza to stay his comment as if he were a cadet.

Casting that incantation should have left him as empty as a dry husk, but yet he lived.
