“It’s said people can go forty days without food, three
days without water, and about thirty-five seconds without finding meaning in
something…”
WIRED FOR STORY: The Writer’s Guide to Using Brain Science
to Hook Readers from the Very First Sentence by Lisa Cron
Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that
page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what
you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for
others!)
• Share the title & author so that other TT
participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
Would not have guessed that teaser was from a writing guide book -- it's great.
ReplyDeleteI'm playing today at Beth Fish Reads
Excellent teaser! This one sounds intriguing even to a non-writer like me. Enjoy, and thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHere's my teaser for this week: The Ice Twins
Sounds like a different approach to writing. I'm intrigued.
ReplyDeleteMy Tuesday post features THE OTHER SIDE OF HEARTACHE.
LOL That's funny.
