nearest manuscript meme

no mouth
Lisa tagged me, which is awesome because I secretly always love to be picked.

Meme rules:

1. Choose any one of YOUR OWN manuscripts. It can be a picture book, MG novel, an adult novel... It makes no difference.
2. Turn to page 30 of your novel or page 3 if it is a PB.
3. Find the 5th sentence.
4. Post the next 5 sentences of text.
5. Then tag 5 writer friends to do the same.
6. Visit Your Tagged Friends and the Person who Tagged You to read their short excepts.


Page 30, fifth sentence:
“I’m giving you another chance.”

Next five sentences:
I scoff. “Very kind of you, Gina. Thanks anyway. I’ll stick with trying to be unnoticed at a new school, rather than hang out with a crazy girl who thinks she can see the future.”

“Slutting it up with Ben Jackson does not make a girl invisible, just so you know.”

It is so hard not to tweak!

Anyone want to play? [info]palygirl? Marilyn? [info]cookie_chef?
