I present to you Eight Sentence Sunday, a blog hop hosted by Weekend Writing Warriors. I've been trying my hand at free writing lately, and this is my favorite piece from this week! "Lets get right to it then." I opened the lowest drawer and took out the cloth wrapped item, placing it on my desk. With tender fingers I removed the cloth, revealing a plate, slightly larger than one from a tea set. The piece was covered in diagrams and symbols on both sides. The woman took gloves out of her pocket and put them on, then picked up the plate, looking at it closely. Slowly taking in each symbol on top and bottom before speaking again. "The top speaks of ferocious acts taken by humans, defying the wishes of a higher being. However. The bottom speaks of forgiveness." Check out more at http://www.wewriwa.com/.

That sounds like an awesome-looking plate. I wish I had one like it; you know how great of a conversation starter that would be?

Isn't it fun to share a brief snippet of your book? Really enjoyed it. ~Keta~

I had fun trying to figure out what was going on -- who the woman was, why the narrator had brought her the plate, what the significance of the markings is, etc.

Welcome back! Love the descriptions here, and a hint of a mystery to come.
