I feel exactly like this lady today! I swear, I think it would be easier to write another book than to come up with new ideas for blogging! I spent the past few days moving my WIP (work in progress) over to Microsoft Word and then going over it for the final edits. That was fun compared to this!

Here is my current brain scan!-------->
So, it's really a good thing I ventured over to FaceBook this morning while I was trying to come up some profound thoughts on writing, blogging, and life in general. I happened upon one of my most favorite profiles, and I'm sure some of you know her, or are following her blog. Novel Publicity, aka Emlyn Chand. She has a fantastic site for writers. I've learned so much from her about getting yourself out there in the world of social networking, and she has a lot of good stuff about writing in general. Feel free to check her out yourself. If you are a writer, you will not regret it!
Here is her blog link:

and her Page on FB:

And in the meantime, since many of my followers here do not follow Emlyn, I am going to steal her idea for today's blog!! (She won't mind - she's so awesome)
(plus I asked her!)
This question is for Authors, however if I get a bunch of comments, you Readers will enjoy it too!!
(which means you will have to click on the link to follow the comments or come back periodically to read them)
What is the first sentence of your book/novel/work in progress?
You can add the title too!
I will post mine first and a little photo to set the scene:

The sound of the blood rushing past my eardrums echoed the roar of my pounding heart. |
For those of you who have read chapter one of Ravenswynd, you will probably notice that, once again, I have changed the beginning. Hopefully, this change is for the better. Let me know what you think!
Don't forget to post your first sentence. This will be fun!
Thanks for reading and commenting!!
