Show and Tell - part 2

So...on Monday some of you guys gave me answers to the the following questions:

1) the title, or working title of whatever you're working on

2)Genre/age group

3) what's the story about; be as brief as possible

4) who's your main character (if more than one pick one)

5) where are you in the story? What's happening?


If anyone else wants to play please do! For those who played on Monday, I have some more specific questions for you:

Patchi: What does Penelope want/expect at the start of the story?

Sheena: How is this Glinda different than the one we know?

Liza: Who was Rena before her husband's death? Loving wife? And does the other wife come as a complete surprise? Were there hints?

Nicola: How are Daphne and Drop Dead Gorgeous different? What makes them and/or the story unique?

Lidy? What sort of world building is involved with the futuristic (and intriguing) concept (inter-dimensional criminal )?

I'm not expecting an answer, mostly these were the questions that popped into my mind as I read over your answers to Monday's questions. I find that when I'm asked questions about my work it often makes me think, dig deeper, which can be helpful.

At any rate, I hope this exercise was helpful and have a fabulous weekend all. Here's some more pretty to send you off :)

Show & Tell

I know we've played this game before, but I always think it's fun to check in with everyone, plus some of you may not have played before...


Here's how it works. In the comments share

1) the title, or working title of whatever you're working on

2)Genre/age group

3) what's the story about; be as brief as possible

4) who's your main character (if more than one pick one)

5) where are you in the story? What's happening?



Here are my answers:

1) AMONG US (as a side note, I have to admit I'm cheating on my almost complete story, BELL, BLACK, & BRIAR but my excuse is I'm getting ready to sell my house and have given myself permission to take it easy and write fanfic instead, just for fun. It's based on an old John Carpenter movie, They Live. ).

2) YA Scifi

3) Two girls. One big problem. Aliens.

4) Sati is who I started off with

5) My other mc, Valerie, has just discovered that the sunglasses the blind man gave her reveal people for what they really are. And some of them aren't human...



Now it's your turn. I can't wait to see what you're working on! I'll be back Wednesday with a very cool cover reveal, and on Friday I'll be back with more questions for you about what you're working on.

Have some pretty to start your week off with :)
