Yesterday my blog was tagged at Serving Through Words for a Teaser Test of 7. I was skeptical at first because...well...I'm always skeptical. I wanted to make sure I wasn't required to swing any cats by the tail at midnight under a full moon or run naked through a grove of Rowen trees. Not that  I'm averse to swinging cats or have a thing against Rowen trees. But I checked it out. It's all good. So here we go.

The Teaser Test of "7"s

1. Go to the 77th page of your book or current WIP.
2. Count down 7 lines.
3. Copy the 7 sentences that follow and post them.
4. Tag 7 other authors.


In honor of the sweet sale going on over at Amazon, here are 7 sentences from page 77 of UNDERCURRENT (only $10 but not for long)...


     "Torolf has cast the evil eye on me for speaking up in the assembly." Steinn's foot swung back and kicked a spray of gravel, then stilled. His eyes held challenge as he met Ragnar's gaze. "I fear for my life."
     The veracity of his words raised bumps on Ragnar's flesh. "You? Fear? You are proven in battle time and again. I have yet to see you run from a fight."


Want to find out if Steinn runs or not? You can at Amazon.  Okay, enough with my shameless self promotion. Let's see what 7 other authors have in their latest release and/or WIP. I'm tagging:
Yvonne Anderson
Lisa T. Bergren
MaryLu Tyndall
Elizabeth Ludwig
Ane Mulligan
Jill Williamson
Heather Day Gilbert

And while I'm at it, I haven't posted about my WIP in a long time. I kind of lost track of my writing days. Not lost as in they're laying in a gutter somewhere, but lost meaning I've still been writing but forgot to write down what day I'm on. Middle age is cruel. So...
