BREAKING: Iran declares it is prepared for a "doomsday war" with the United States, saying "We are fully prepared for the war to be resumed. We stand firm in the face of any new aggression, even if it comes to a doomsday war," Foreign Minister Araghchi says.

@AustinJ_P_ Why not? I think there are certain individuals in our lives, both living and deceased, that can inspire characters in our books.

@graestonewriter @DanaLemaster @Anyechka @WeAreHere @AnuSengupta It is indeed. It's those moments you can never get back!

[Jason R Shepherd @JRSheperds]

@graestonewriter @DanaLemaster @Anyechka @WeAreHere @AnuSengupta I hope to be able to attend tonight. It's been a while.

@graestonewriter I want to ask for prayers for my city and the surrounding commonwealth of Kentucky. We live in Bowling Green, Ky, and the Tornados that ripped through last Saturday morning devastated a significant number of families. My family was lucky as the severe weather went around us. TY!

@graestonewriter Hi everyone. Sorry I've not been on in a while. The holiday season has been a rough one. I work in retail, and between the holidays and covid stretching things thin, I've not had enough gas in the tank to even open a book, let alone Twitter.

@graestonewriter @RebeccaJAmiss
What a great opening, Rebecca.
You told us who the main character is and how others see her.
Great job!!!

[Jason R Shepherd @JRSheperds]

I like how you gave the reader just enough to be able to visualize, Lydia. Good job.

@ernie_fink @graestonewriter I like how this is a win, win situation. If you catch the big one you win—but the one that got away. Now that's a story to tell.

@RosanthaTindall @graestonewriter Is it wrong I want bread now? LOL

@Elderac @graestonewriter @WritingExcuses I really like the proposed version of this, Mark. I like how she looked at the grey sky and made two vows.

From book one:

The warmth of the early morning sun kissed the shimmering surface of the water, giving birth to a whimsical mist as the sweet aroma of flowers drifted in the breeze. Nearby birds sang their songs of life, beginning another day of survival.

Whatever the case may be, people moved to the side where I walked.
I made eye contact without shying way and quirked my lips with a grimaced hatred.

Just an idea. There seemed like a lot of unnecessary words that seemed to muddy the meaning.
