Hi everyone!
This
week is my sixth time with the Weekend Writing Warriors. Here’s 8 sentences
from one of my current WIPs, The Voyage of the Inara Marue.
Xander sighed in exasperation.
"How, Cam, just describe to me exactly how this was different?"
"Well…the first thing he did
was chain my foot to the bed." She watched him momentarily before
continuing. "That's when he touched me. I felt a sting when he touched me
and I reacted." She swallowed hard and pulled her gown down to reveal the
ugly red welt which had formed.
He immediately was next to her.
This is a sci-fi novel with romantic elements. It’s about a woman who was physically and genetically modified without her
permission. The modifications are extensive and include eyes, limbs and
nanotechnology in the form of nanites flowing through her. She was built for a
special mission but those in power at the military want her for something very
different and it’s not for the good of mankind. She has to fight not only for
herself but the whole of mankind.
Hope you
