Teaser Tuesday!

In the middle of the insanity that is my family gathering for the holidays, here's a short teaser from 365!
Angela has woken Lindsay up in the middle of the night while she and Riley are fighting.

"I’ll be leaving an empty space"--
Awww, that is so sad :(

I love the inner dialogue in this scene, and how she admits to be prideful.

Laurie said...

I agree, the inner dialog is really nice. But also really nice character descriptions. I'm interested in the relationships.

Angie said...

You've got me curious too - time isn't on our side, I'll be leaving an empty space. Something bad is going to happen, isn't?

Bidisha said...

"Or maybe we’re the ghosts, maybe we’re all already gone" --there's something so thought-provoking about this line!
With all your teasers, I have to admit, I'm falling in love with Lindsay :)

Love the yellow line like a tightrope. Curious about the baby taking her place... I would read on.

Love the inner dialogue, and your MC's voice!

Great teaser :D

I really want her to hold his hand and I know nothing that is going on. I like your MC's thoughts.

You have great interior dialogue and flow in everything I've read by you, Liz. Amazing characters, too :)

Your writing is beautiful. I loved this.

I mean it when I say this is truly amazing. I always look forward to reading your Tuesday snippets, probably because I feel very akin to your writing style. Anyway, keep it up! If you haven't found an agent for this yet, it shouldn't be too hard to do so.

Gahhh your writing is so beautiful. I especially loved this line: "Someone once told me that there were more people on earth now than ever before but I was only half listening and I might be remembering it wrong." So great.
