Take 42

September 26th, 2007

clapperboard.jpgIt’s taking a long time to get the initial meeting between Keturah and Lord Death right. Each has to be presented as a strong character but with their own unique vulnerability. This meeting sets the stage for the rest of the story and developing relationship. These are the key points that need to be incorporated into this scene.

“He laughed then, and I saw that he was perilously beautiful, at once terrifying and irresistible.”

“I see you have given me a part in the story,” said Lord Death, and if I could trust myself, I might have thought that he might have said it with a hint of sadness. 

No wonder this crucial scene is so difficult to perfect!

    I Love Kids’ Books
    I have the privilege of being a teacher-librarian in 2 elementary schools. That means I have the best of all worlds; I teach and work with children from Kindergarten through grade 8; my job encompasses the management of the libraries as well as developing the collections. And my homework? Reading and more reading! What more could a life-long bookworm ask for? The point of this blog is mainly for my own use- to make myself some notes about some of the many books I read- to prompt my failing memory, to use as the basis for book-talks or newsletter inserts and to provide information for others that may be interested. These will not be formal or lengthy- but just some of my thoughts.
