rosiewook, though it seems like it's been popping up everywhere lately.
So, the instructions:
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that cool or intellectual book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.
6. Tag three people
First, let me say that I'm currently in my bedroom... I was going to check my email quickly before taking a nap and for some reason finally decided to be a sheep. What this means is that the nearest books are in my Teetering Pile (i.e. the nightstand bookcase, crammed with the books that are on my To Be Read list) and some of them have been there for awhile, though I do intend to get around to them all eventually. So, blindly grabbing the first book I could reach, here are the results:
Your outline can help pull you out of the rewriting trap. After you've written the book, let your outline show you how much you've gotten right. You thought deeply about all kinds of questions related to your characters, their story, and their world because the outline made you think about them.
ETA: The title and author are in the comments...
I'm not going to tag anyone, because I really don't remember who has already done it. If you'd like to give a try, go for it! Consider yourself tagged!
Also, I'm not sure what's supposed to happen at this point. Is everyone supposed to guess what book it is? Should I make another post with the answer? Hmmmm.
