Lucky Seven!

My wonderful critique partner/partner-in-all-things-fun, Misty Simon, has tagged me in the Lucky Seven.

The challenge: Post seven lines from an unpublished work of fiction.

The Golden Rules:

Go to page 7 or 77 in your current manuscript
Go to line 7
Post on your blog or Facebook page the next 7 lines, or sentences, as they are – no cheating
Tag 7 other authors to do the same (This is not happening - everyone I would tag has already been tagged)



Okay, so from my brand new, never edited, still oh-so-very-rough draft of Shredded:



“What’s going on around here?” she asked.
“I don’t know.” A low howl came from outside. “Follow me.”
Julia waited while he checked the locks, then followed him up a short set of stairs. The window in the small attic-like storage space was covered with a black trash bag. Ben moved the bag as soon as the door was closed and the room dark.
“Come and look,” he said, moving to the side to make room for her at the vent.

Eh...
Behave!
