I was the recipient of The Lucky 7 Meme, tagged by Suzanne Drazic at Putting Words Down on Paper. I don't usually do tags or memes or awards anymore but this one intrigued me. It's a meme for writers to showcase your latest manuscript. Mine is from "Lighting Candles in the Snow," to be released later this year by WiDo Publishing.
Lucky 7 Meme Rules:
1. Go to page 77 of your current manuscript.
2. Go to line 7.
3. Copy the next 7 lines (sentences or paragraphs) and post them as they're written. No cheating!
4. Tag 7 other writers to pass this meme on to.
My manuscript Excerpt:
“Who’s talking about a precious career? That’s all you care about these days. The novel. The agent. The advance. The launch. The royalties. God, Jeremy! I am sick to death of hearing about your stupid novel! You say all I care about is my career? I can’t believe I’m hearing this.”
It was a Saturday afternoon, the day I liked to catch up on household tasks like laundry, shopping, cleaning, the usual errand-running merry-go-round; and Jeremy liked to take off and go write, leaving all the menial tasks to me. The rising star of Jeremy London, novelist, couldn’t be bothered with picking up dry cleaning. Not when he had “revisions to do.” I gave up my Saturday for this?
