A meeting place for readers and writers
The dungeon was hidden behind more bushes, built of stone and brick and tucked against the hillside. Had she not had a guide, Nikki knew she would never have found it; it being a small dark cave, with two or three steps leading up to the opening. She got a chill when she stepped in – stooped over, as she was not able to stand all the way – and saw the dots of light dancing across the stone face. The place felt alive.
“What happened here?” Nikki asked in a hushed voice.

Comment by chris laro on January 26, 2013 at 11:23am hey I just asked for us to be friends on this site Joanne. I enjoyed reading sample chaps of tanty and vere - love your use of patois, it makes me wonder to go back to my own use of patois in dialog and make it more digestible for reader. But I do love reading 'real' dialog in phonetics. Great stuff!
I hope we man collaborate on future or just keep up discussions. But if you ever come across a competent female writer searching for a novel to turn into screenplay let me know. It's vital that 'delcina's tree' becomes a script. Peace
