7/7 Man Overboard

I'm playing with the 7/7/7 meme; the seventh line of the seventh page of the seventh chapter.
The seventh chapter of Man Overboard is less than seven pages long, so here's the seventh line...


“Make sure you are, bro. Can’t have your ankle-biters losing a teacher to the sharks.”

“I’ll drive myself thanks,” she said, smiling. “I have a few places to go, to pay some bills and I need to remind people I’m still alive.”

7/7 Xanthe and the Seaman

I'm playing with the 7/7/7 meme; the seventh line of the seventh page of the seventh chapter.
The seventh chapter of Xanthe and the Seaman is less than seven pages long, so here's the seventh line...
Obviously. Not many people are going to find the one I came in by.

Court in Between

Court in Between is the first book in a miniseries about what happens when Court Leopold, indie musician, vanishes from the Counterpoint music festival on the eve of his 25th birthday.

I had a wonderful time with this three-book series, because I was able to combine so many of my favourite writing themes. There's fantasy, romance, family secrets, world building, culture building, music, singing, horses, costumes, one of a kind instruments and jewellery, food, herbs, artwork and a lot of fun.

As the blurb put it;
A man with a horse…and a fairy in the bed.
Court Leopold loves his life. He’s happily single and tours the country as one half of the indie band Courtesan. On the eve of his twenty-fifth birthday, his mother gives him a gold fief ring and says there’s a horse and a birthright to claim. Court expects to fit this duty between gigs, but once he meets Artemisia and his keeper, the hob maid Tansy Thrift, all bets are off. Is Court’s perfect life gone forever?
What I love about writing this series is that I can create a continuing world, and add to it as characters walk in and out of one another's stories. In the Counterpoint miniseries, of which Court in Between is the first title, the major characters are all making their first appearance. They reappear in Counterpoint Questions and Counterpoint Answers

7/7 I Promise

I'm playing with the 7/7/7 meme; the seventh line of the seventh page of the seventh chapter.  The seventh chapter of I Promise is five pages long, so I've gone with the seventh line instead.

She hadn’t even known Helene Dimont was some kind of relative of Aunt Calypso and thus of Corin.

7/7 Pearl the Brave Unicorn

I'm playing 7/7/7 by taking the seventh line of the seventh page of the seventh chapter of a book. This time, it's a 7/7 because the Pearl the Magical Unicorn series don't have long chapters.
Here's the 7th line of the 7th chapter.

Pearl’s hooves slipped and they whizzed down the mountain in a flurry of snow as a pink avalanche carried them down the mountain.

7th chapter, 7th page 7th line WIP

This is another 7/7/7/ post


Her eyes sparkled brown, and as she gazed, the colour shifted through a mother-of-pearl sheen and back to brown.


This time Betony is looking into a pool of truth and she sees a woman in the water.

The 7th chapter, 7th page, 7th line is one of those memes that goes around and around. I thought I'd look at a few of my books and see what happens.

The book is THORNFAIR.
