Prologue- not

Ok, so I really want to share more with you all about my book BUT, i cant really give the details out yet. Gotta keep it under wraps, you know? So, being the nice person I am, I wrote a little bit more of what could go in the prologue, following what i had already posted.
Below, you will find the regular prologue and in bold is what would come next. If you wanna take a jab at what it is all about, knock yourself out :)

Hope you enjoy it!

"I knew what was happening even if I didn’t know the reason why. I was falling, it was unmistakable. Surely I must have hoped loud enough they had actually heard me, but what did this mean? The air moved around me with great velocity but as I glanced around me, instead everything moved with such delicacy.
What ever would I do once I arrived? Will I even remember this past life? I closed my eyes and resigned myself to the feeling of peace the wind beneath brought to me. Soon enough it will all be over.


I finally reached the ground. The descent had left me feeling such pleasure, I wanted to fall some more, but this was where I had to be. A wave of energy spread back and forth across my skin as each cell began its transformation. This was how I was being born. I opened my eyes momentarily and glanced around at the colorful world. The trees stood tall, casting shadows like great carpets unrolled from their bases. The sky was above me, like a dome closed over a music box I was carefully placed in. I had never seen anything more beautiful, or had I? I shook my head, as if the haziness would be cleared into focus again. What was happening to me? In fact, where was I?
I took a few steps trying to balance myself on a fallen tree trunk. I wasn’t used to walking on these feet. I looked down wiggling the toes. With a smile I realized it was going to be an exciting ride.

Again, the part in BOLD letters doesn't go in the book, i just simply made it up to give you all another taste of it :)
Your thoughts are greatly appreciated!

XOXO

  1. How close dose this resemble the real part of the book… again remember over using “was” and redundant words.

    I really like the idea of this piece, and I can feel the potential power it has to offer once it's trimmed and focused.

  2. Jeff, The Prologue in the book is just the first part.. but who knows, if it is good enough i may just add the bold one too.

    It is just a little taste because ch1 goes on a whole different direction, so you will keep in mind the prologue and hopefully catch on with whats going on sooner that later.

    Dont know if I make sense, BUT! you will have to wait for the whole thing to come out ahah

  5. Hi Lucy -- I like it, but tripped up on the 'instead' part - I know what you are trying to say, but there's something with the order of the sentence that just trips me up the tiniest amount. Good work, thanks for sharing :)
