No....I promise I haven't abandoned the story.....I just took a little break. But it is back in full swing now....Yay!
------
9/25/08 - I began my novel in reality, I have written out the intro....and part one (to be continued fashion) I will post my intro below:
I had been waiting none too patiently for the day. I was phyched! My first jumping competition! It was only jumping 3' but it was still exciting.
Everything seemed to start out well. We were nearing the end of the course when my horse, Midnight Ashes, began acting uneasy. She spooked right before the highest, hardest jump on the course. I couldn't stop her, and it was all over in a second. As soon as her front feet landed on the other side of the jump, she stumbled and went down, taking me and the jump set with her.
I heard shouts mingled with screams and saw people running towards me, my two best friends in the lead. I hurt all over, I felt the sensation of something wet slipping down my face. Blood? I tried to move, to cry, anthing to reassure myself that I was okay. But my mind went dead and everything dissapeared into a blanket of darkness, with an echo of wailing sirens whispering to my scared heart.
To Be Continued...
Thoughts or opinions? I would love them!!!! Please leave a comment!

AWESOME. I guess I don't know if I'm just kinda stupid, but I had a hard time comphrehending "jumping competition." Then I figured out that it was a HORSE jumping compettiotion? I think you should make that a little more clear.
It's AMAZING, however. Beautiful word choice, and I really wanna read more. I guess it's not enough that I can give a TRUE eval, but so far, it's perfect. Keep it up. |
