Never Trust a Raven--or a Fever Dream
Jan. 12th, 2006 01:28 pmThe Unkindness of Ravens
Words yesterday: 1,276
Total words: 4,138
Reason for length: Lost the urge to write.
Overused word: eye
Gratuitous word: aplomb
Type of scene: Escape from a battlefield, followed by fever dreams.
Challenge(s): Again with the working in of background information.
Which line is it anyways? "Danger Three," she said, as softly as if she was a priest instructing him, "beware trusting the raven, for he will strike without mercy to destroy his opponent, even unto pecking out the eyes of fledglings."
Other writingy stuff: Heard that Serenade of Blood & Silver was rejected.
Notes: Got the form letter rejection in the mail today. It's interesting, knowing what went into the rejection process and seeing the extremely impersonal form-letter result.
