Snippets of Story: May and June 2014
Snippets of Story is a writing link-up from Whisperings of the Pen.
This month, I’ve been doing a ton of revision work on The Assassin’s Daughter, but I’ve also made some progress with The Luckless Ones. I’ll be sharing snippets from both today.
Ed remained wordless, his focus
instead on the mug of cider he brought to his lips. Did he think she was strong

- The Luckless Ones, Chapter Eleven

are not the only things I keep in mind.”
- The Assassin’s Daughter, Chapter Twenty-eight
Pizza Friday officially began at 5:30 in the
evening.
- The Luckless Ones, Chapter Ten
He didn’t blame her for not wanting such a life

- The Assassin’s Daughter, Chapter Thirty-three
“Oh, no. Trust me, I’d much rather discuss
music than clothing, but here you find me. Let’s talk about silks.”
“Satins, dear. We’re going to talk about satins.”
“Those,
too.”“Satins, dear. We’re going to talk about satins.”
- The Luckless Ones, Chapter Seventeen
“We
have to say goodbye at some point, don’t we?”
- The Assassin’s Daughter, Chapter Thirty-two
