Chapter One - All Alone Tonight
In the far distance I heard a small howl, a lonley howl. It drowned on and on. The echo kept ringing in my ears, that one howl, I wondered where it came from, what it came from. Thoughts raced in and out of my mind, what if the animals was wounded, orphaned, alone. Maybe it was a female wolf who just lost her pup, or crying for protection from enemy packs. I looked out my window, there was only farm for as long as I could see. Or so I thought. |

Nope not at all.
Chapter 2
I crawled out of bed the next morning. I heard my brother pouring milk over his coco puffs. I slipped on my Carrhart coat and tip toed over to the door that led to or garage.
"Jason." I heard my mother say. I stopped mid step.
"Ya mom." I answered turning aroud.
''Before you go galavanting across the fields, I want you to milk Chance and Rosie - and eat some breakfast."
"Aww Mom, Do I have ta?"
"Jason Charles, sit down and eat!"
I trudged over to my seat and fell into my chair. I ripped to milk carton out of my brother hand and poured it onto my cereal. I ate quickly and ran out to the barn with the silver bucket in my left hand and a stool in my right.

First, seperate all dialouge by a new paragraph:
She looked up at the sprite.
"How...did you know?" She asked.
"Simple, I've known you all of your life," The sprite replied.
Don't start a sentece with because, and, or, the word or.
Check all grammar.
Make sure you don't have any run on sentences:
She ran away from the farm terrified for her life she thought that someone was coming for her.
Correction:
She ran away from the farm, terrified for her life. She thought that someone was coming for her.
Add vivid words like: worn, tattered, musky, drenched, ext. |
