Friday Fiction Challenge
I issued a challenge to all writers at Writer…Inerrupted. It’s very easy and will take you all of five minutes to do, so head on over there and join in!

First three sentences of WIP I’m writing: (remember it’s a WIP!)

Yours sounds like women’s fiction–I like the first person point of view.
