So last night my writer friends and I (who have way too much time on our hands) came up with a random game. We would pick a random page number, paragraph, and sentence #, and then read it aloud from our in-progress novels. It was entertaining to us, at least haha

But I thought, hey, why not try and adapt this for the Bisky’s Scribblers? :D So, here’s how it’s gonna work:

Someone suggests a page number (and if you haven’t written that many pages take off a couple digets ;p), paragraph, and sentence number and then we all copy and paste that sentence.

For example, one would suggest page 234 (if you haven’t written that much, then perhaps pg 34, or 4), paragraph 3, sentence 2. If you only have like one sentence in that paragraph then just read that one, ya know adjust accordingly (not rocket science haha). Make sure to add the title of where you’re pulling the quote from :D

My friends and I were really entertained by this last night, but we could be just weirdo writers :x (<= good selling point? Xp) I’m interested to see if it’s as fun over the internet lol.

Okay! Here we go, I’ll start: Page 113, paragraph 3, last sentence (of that paragraph).


“You would never have allowed me to speak with you if you didn’t trust me.�� :o => A line of dialogue, from ReiHana, book 1.

" Admiral, we read a contact bearing aft, range four-two-five, and closing. " From The Mighty First, Episode 1, page 113, p-3, last sentence.

Interesting game, but the app I use on my tablet doesn't give me page numbers. Maybe I'll do chapter numbers instead?

Page 113, paragraph 2, sentence 4
Sille could see the pyre's raging flames become larger as the distance became smaller. Just one little push and she would join the king. = a small part from "The queenslayer"

She could not trust the words Rayne spoke to her, but cradled in his arms, she would have to trust his strength for now.- From Enchantress's Daughter
page 13, paragraph 3, last sentence.

"The last of these triplets was not expected to survive,�� the machine answered. - From Tether

Page 17, paragraph 2, first sentence

Oooh these are all so good ^^ I'm having a lot of fun with this lol. It's cool to see just random snippets of writings ^^

@Brian I suppose that would work, and then pick a random spot haha Or maybe you could use the percentages vs pg numbers?


Should we try a new random spot? Everyone look at page 77 (or 7, or 7%), last paragraph (on the page), 1st sentence :D What does it say?


"Ashley looked at him skeptically and thought, I’m not telling you my name." -ReiHana, book 1.

"Ana had to bite back a scream, as the Captain gripped her hair, yanking it back to expose her throat to his knife." Enchantress's Daughter, book 2

Sergeant Major Ford was satisfied with their progress, and decided that the next phase of their training could begin.

"We don't fare well 'round dogs."

Hmm that little game makes me re-think my book... every sentence taken out randomly sucks. :/

"I felt so out of place." Phasms: Infinite Potential

"James is back on his feet shaking the cobwebs out of his head." - Virtual Wars

Good action spot in the book. That's from the first fight between the MC and antagonist. :D To make this game flow better we should have each person post their line, and then put a new number/spot. That way we don't have to wait for a new spot if we've already posted on the last one.

page/percent/chapter 10
Paragraph 3
sentence 2

Darielle looked away from Eleni toward the wall and began to cry.

She felt terror shiver over her, but her motherly instinct turned it into rage.

Would it be tacky of me to pull rank and demand his gloves?

Chapter 15
Paragraph 1
Final Sentence

�� that Karey! I'll have to respond once I get home to my WIP!

After reading all of your wonderful sentences, it feels quite inadequate to post mine. :(
Oh well...

It slowly came back to me—the cell, the two men and their mysterious employer.

(From yet unpublished The Legacy: Destiny)

"He delicately took the tire iron from her and continued on, heading for Market Street, like their sudden, intimate contact hadn't happened." -Mr. 8 P113 p3 last sentence.

Woo! Okay, let's switch it up a little shall we? Now let's do

Page 75, Last paragraph, second sentence

Mine:

"She stepped back somewhat startled by the man’s stare."

These are all awesome ^^ @GG I love it ^^ So mysterious :3

Totally forgot about this! I meant to join in a while back; looks like fun! c: Lovely stuff so far.


Here's mine from page 75:

"Her heart started to pound, and suddenly the shadows seemed far more intimidating."

Love your game, Nicole!

"One of the card players was laughing."

I'm off to work, so if you DO respond, I won't see it until this evening. Thank you for the compliment!!!!

Some sentences have the job of leading you into the next. Don't knock yourself. You're a very good writer :D

“I have made it dirty inside the box.��

"Rumors had cast him in an unsavory light and ruthless in every aspect of his life"

@Bisky That NEEDS more explanations! lol Are you talking about a cat? /ducks

Haha :P It's so deliciously vague, isn't it >:3

(No its not about cats, LOL)

"‘Okay, here goes.�� Sarah took a deep breath in, and kept her eyes locked on the lake."
