Huh, the word impede isn't in ANY of my documents, let alone any #WIPSnips. So I'll just showcase my author website. pkeenan30.wixsite.com/writinghub

People are seeing the Amazon ads and clicking through, but not buying. I think the choke point is the lack of reviews, so I'd like to encourage those who've bought my books to leave reviews. And if you haven't, I encourage you to get one. www.amazon.com/dp/B0FF46PPS... #BookSky #ReadingCommunity

But the sun had touched the corpse later. Water and its own nature had killed the guard troll … [You and I, we are creatures of the sea, of the waters. But the trolls are creatures of the stones, of the earth. It is a poor idea to fight them on their own territory.] #WIPSnips #DistantLands

“The tablet out there is stele…” he paused to convert the number to the elvish counting system. “One hundred seventeen from the grand temple of Erium the Builder.” When Carling said nothing, he repeated, “Stele one hundred seventeen,” in a voice soaked with gravity. #WIPSnips #MarchToTheFirstGod

Fingolas cursed his own curiosity and stepped back to the edge of the battlement. He tapped the crystal on a gold chain that dangled from his breastplate. “What are they up to?” He lifted the crystal to his eye. His eyes widened. “By all the gods!” #WIPSnips #MarchToTheFirstGod

But then a spray of ice crystals exploded from the side of its neck, and the spell broke as the thing shrieked and stumbled. George scrambled up and sprinted for the trees. What happens next? Find out! www.amazon.com/Savage-Beast... #WIPSnips #SavageBeasts

I would NEVER compare donald trump to a pig. Pigs are social, intelligent, and useful.

They truly believe it’s “impossible.”

“And without the cumpus, we’ll lose direction, maybe end up going in circles. We must charge the front and hit the flank, as they say. But how?” Ziond sagged until her abundant wrinkles multiplied. “I don’t know. But we have until nightfall to think of something.” #WIPSnips #MarchToTheFirstGod

“It’s found us,” Stella muttered with grim certainty. George eased the snow-cycle to a halt. “You got a direction?” The winds batted them from each direction in turn. “Not yet,” Stella said through gritted teeth. She unslung her rifle. #WIPSnips #SavageBeasts

“People off by themselves disappear. Sometimes there are footprints like the ones you found. If there’s a direction, it’s north, up the trails to the mountains. The folk in the valley say trolls come out of the mountain caves and take humans for slaves or food.” #WIPSnips #DistantLands

“We could try staking out some bait,” Alice replied, “It didn’t work before, but now that we know its special sense only goes so far, we can try watching from far enough away. It’ll be too far to get a good hit, but if we have enough guns, we might take it down anyway.” #WIPSnips #SavageBeasts

“The thieves that fancy themselves the aristocrats of their kind?” “Yeah, the snotty ones.” Sybil twitched. “Yes, what do they use?” “They have special things skinnier than knives they use. They make them themselves and never let anybody see them.” #WIPSnips #LadySeis

Jerome nodded. “That’s what Lady Seis told me to do, Cecil. But you what? Let’s take a look at the main house first. I want to catch a glimpse of the third son. I hear he's just the sort who’d do something risky for… an uncle, let’s say. And botch it up.” #WIPSnips #LadySeis

The face was too small, only a third the size it should have been, while the mouth opened two times too large and displayed jagged, shark-like teeth. Two eyes like smoky quartz glared from under the mat of mossy hair. #WIPSnips #DistantLands

“Well, we’re safe for the moment. Just try and rest until you warm up. Your nerves could probably use a rest too. I’m pretty wrung out myself.” She holstered the Very pistol on the third try and slid a hand under her ushanka to squeeze her forehead. #WIPSnips #SavageBeasts

“You’re no shopkeeper’s wife. Not with those rings.” “Indeed I’m not. I could probably come up with some story to give you, but secrets are such a dreary bother. My name is Sybil Trevor, Baroness of Seis.” #AwesomeCharacters #LadySeis

“There is something here. I don’t know what, but I don’t like it. I don’t think we will take your challenge.” Now was the time to spend it. “You are Sra. You take all challenges. Why spurn this one?” Now, slide the blade in, deep. “Are you afraid?” #WIPSnips #MarchToTheFirstGod

“Oh, you’re good, Street. I guess you don’t spend all your time winking at women above your rank. Very well. Too bad I'm not a titled gentleman, then I could keep my chair.” “Too bad you’re not the son of God. Then you could wash her feet.” #WIPSnips #LadySeis

Freewaru caught Hedvig by the moss on her head. “I guess you’re just as worthless as all the others! Fine! I’ll fix things like you obviously can’t!” She shoved Hedvig face-first into the water that was now ankle-deep. #DistantLands

Lembui flipped a page. “No one agrees on what they saw, Mars. It doesn’t make any sense. You suppose they didn’t see the same thing? Or did they see an animal they didn’t know, and tried to squeeze it in with lions and rhinos and crocs?” #WIPSnips #SavageBeasts

MacNess was picking up the metal tray and checking the wriggling things inside. “Anything else, Doctor?” Lady Mary asked. “Just no strain on her belly. No running, no swordplay, no riding horses, no dancing.” “She’s not going to be thrilled.” “That doesn’t shock me.” #WIPSnips #LadySeis

I sold a copy of #TraitorDevil today and yesterday. Maybe I'm finally getting some momentum! #BookSky #WritingCommunity If you're curious, that's this one www.amazon.com/Traitor-Devi... And here's my author page if you want to know what's coming next: pkeenan30.wixsite.com/writinghub

He was only vaguely aware of his own progress, his focus on the crack blinding him to how big or deep it might be. And so he worked, for the gods only knew how long. #WIPSnips #MarchToTheFirstGod

From there, the carving grew progressively shakier and lighter. "July 18th, 1927, Morning: Came in the night. At least 6. Sound like cats. Look like basilisks size of men. Jorge gone, hurt me bad. Barely get here. They still wait at bottom." #WIPSnips #DistantLands www.amazon.com/Distant-Land...

They made slow progress as they tracked down each group or picket and handed out lunch. They saw no sign of the beast, nor had anyone else, which translated into the kind of boring terror that turns people into maniacs far faster than the purer kind from two days before. #WIPSnips #SavageBeasts

Back in high school, I powered through catch-22 no matter what. That was when I realized it wasn't even remotely worth it. If a book is crap, don't waste your time, mental energy, and sanity on a lost cause.

Ironically, the Vehsra who released them from the tower were a blessing, for the Blue Javelins had spent two weeks in the tower, packed in like firewood and treated much the same. For a short time, sunlight and open air were a treasured gift. But then the ceremony began #WIPSnips #MarchToTheFirstGod

“Oh, surely you’ve heard about the incident in the palace?” “Jerome I haven’t left this house in three weeks. The only news I know is the queen in pregnant.” “I haven’t heard that.” “Nor have I. But they've been saying that since she was crowned, why would they stop now?” #WIPSnips #LadySeis

“I’ll leave you here for now and send instructions back later. Should be less than a week. Kainalu, you work the machine. Randolph, you watch our guests. You know what to do if they even twitch. When you’re done, take the Packard back to town and lie low. Here’s the key." #WIPSnips #DistantLands

Frank pushed himself back in his chair. “How bad?” “It’s made sixteen kills in the past week.” Frank’s eyes widened. “How many human dead?” “That IS human dead.” The coffee pot clanged against the wooden floor and rolled against Alice’s boots. #WIPSnips #SavageBeasts www.amazon.com/Savage-Beast...

Frosus shrugged. “Think so, but that’s human secrets. Nobody knows how to build those things or how they work. There’s the wind-catchers, the steerer-thing, the star-finder, and there are at least a dozen other secrets we’d need to build a human sea-crosser.” #WIPSnips #MarchToTheFirstGod

She carefully touched the spots around where the blistered, cracked paint curled away from the metal. “It’s okay. Now’s not the time to worry about my paint job.” “You sure we can’t speed this up?” George asked, “If we build the fires higher-” “We’ll wreck the engines.” #WIPSnips #SavageBeasts

“My queen?” Said another troll in the corner. She was similar to Freewaru in her build and face, but her “hair” was shorter and her gray, brown-veined skin was smooth. “What is it, Hedvig?” “Do you suppose something might have happened to Xebi?” #WIPSnips #DistantLands

I sold a book! Some other people expressed interest, let's see if they follow up. #BookSky #WritingCommunity

Efilla grunted. “This is harder than I thought. No wonder she gave it to you. If I had legs as fat as her, I couldn’t get this done.” “Human women don’t have fat legs.” “Then why do they wear those stupid shirts that go to the ground instead of breeches?” #WIPSnips #MarchToTheFirstGod

Franklin added, “Thin lips. Hers hands looked rough. Wore one of those tourist shirts, tan pants, and boots.” “Say,” said Kamea, “She wear a silver pendant shaped like a three-blade propeller?” Franklin blinked. “Yes.” “Green eyes?” #WIPSnips #DistantLands

“...those don’t indicate stabbing, they’re more like…” Luke rustled in the pocket of his checkered shirt and extracted a pen. He probed under a flap of skin in the man’s neck. “Ah.” He pried the flap up. “There, see it?” #WIPSnips #SavageBeasts
