#777


My friend, writer extraordinaire,  JuliPageMorgan, challenged me to #777.   What is #777 you ask? Follow the rules below (yes, there are rules) and you shall see what it's all about (it's not the hokey pokey).

RULES

1.  Go to page 77 of your current MS.

2.  Go to line 7.

3.  Copy down the next 7 lines/sentences, and post them as they’re written. No cheating.

4.  Go forth and challenge other authors (keeping in theme, preferably 7 authors).


Do you see what it's about?  Fantastic!  I knew you would.   :-)


My 777 excerpt will be from, REMEMBRANCE.   Enjoy!
