It’s WIPpet Wednesday again! So that means it’s time to share a snippet from a work in progress that relates in some way to today’s date.
Let’s see here… *flips through papers, disappears into filing cabinet*
Here.
One paragraph for the first month, from chapter 17 (7-1=6). Zero context.
We’d sworn we would do everything in our power to be together, that nothing would separate us. But perhaps fate or the gods didn’t care what we wanted. What were the promises of two people when compared with the needs of the entire world?
Um… *checks notes again* Well, that was ominous.
*runs away*
Oh, but before I go, here’s the link to the rest of the WIPpeteers. Stop by and see what kind of shenanigans they’re up to! And big thanks to Emily Witt for once again taking up hosting duties. Feel like maybe this is the week you’d like to join in on the fun and get to know some fellow writers? Say hi to everyone else, post to your blog, and link back! It’s really easy.
disregard the prologue

ominous indeed. Where’s the rest? Huh? I need more. 😉

Um… coming January 29? *sweet smile*

Intriguing. It kind of gives you a grand scheme idea of what this book might possibly be about. Finding one quote to put your entire book into perspective is rather difficult sometimes. Very nicely done.

Dun dun dunnnnn. Though, the speaker has a point. What ARE the fates of two people compared to the world? 😦

It’s weird, right? We’re the centre of our own stories, but so is everyone else in theirs. How do you weigh one against another, or thousands of others?

Hopefully, you’re not put in a position where you have to. And if you are… You decide whether your story means so much to you that you’d deny the same to someone else to keep it.

Very ominous indeed! Can’t wait to find out what happens!
January 7th, 2016 at 8:21 pm
Oh, wow. That’s a big and overwhelming thought. Makes you wonder about all the other couples and how they determined which course to take.
January 8th, 2016 at 4:53 pm
Wow, that was heavy, but totally true!

Very ominous, but very powerful.

I like it. And I want the rest. And I might get cranky about it if you don’t placate me this Wednesday!
I can be ominous, too!
