Writing Challenge participant Natalie K challenged me to the 7/7/7 Snippet Challenge.
The rules are:
- Go to page 7 of your work-in-progress
- Scroll down to line #7
- Share the next 7 lines of your manuscript in a blog post
- Tag 7 other writers (with blogs) to continue the challenge.
Here are the 7 lines from the 7th row of the 7th page of my recently “completed” manuscript, Return to the Monolith. I’m stoked to announce, I’ll start querying agents with Monolith from early January. Hoorah! But here’s a sneak peek.
Dawn peeked through the pink-fringed grey clouds, lighting up the sky in the east. The snow-tipped mountains loomed in the distance. Alga’s heart pounded. This was the first time she had ever walked away from her mountains.
Her stomach had stopped rumbling. Her tears dried up. She tried not to think about her Sisterhouse and what she had left behind.
Now, I am passing on the fun to seven more writer bloggers. Consider yourselves challenged;
Looking forward to seeing other 7/7/7 Snippets.

Oo! Sounds interesting. I really like the concept of ‘Sisterhouse’. That definitely adds to the style of the world you’ve created for your novel. I wish you the best of luck with querying! That’s so exciting! ^.^
