One of the hardest parts of being a writer sometimes is willingly sharing our work, especially when it’s not finished. We want it to be good and we want others to enjoy it as much as we enjoy writing it.
Which is why I’d like to invite all of you to follow me in a game. Open your current Work-in-Progress to join in. Then show off your work with the following challenges:
- Share the title and any previous working titles.
- First paragraph where your MC’s name appears.
- Favorite line from the first page.
- First line of dialogue from page eleven.
- Least favorite line from the most recently written page.
- Favorite line from or about your antagonist.
Ready? Go! You can find mine down below. Drop me a link if you take up the game, I’d love to see the highlights of your work in progress!
- Share the title and any previous working titles.
- Rosekeeper. So far that’s the only title.
- First paragraph where your MC’s name appears.

- Favorite line from the first page.
- “One revolutionary thought at a time,” Jims counseled.
- First line of dialogue from page eleven.
