McHugh Posted: Tue Oct 10, 2006 12:20 pm See if you can guess the author and book this opener comes from: "Well, like most people who are jessed, I was sold."

McHugh. The first is, "How I came to be jessed." Back to top Violanthe Webmaster Joined: 24 Jul 2003 Posts: 5903 Posted: Tue Oct 10, 2006 9:04 pm It's not really a sentence, though.

But, yes, Nekropolis it is! _________________ Violet "Violanthe" Kane [email protected] ARWZ.com: A Magazine of Alternative Reality Fiction Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First      All times are GMT - 4 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Discussion----------------Alternative Reality Caf�Writers' Zone Workshop----------------Workshop FAQ & RulesWorkshopSubmissionsWriting Exercises and Scene Starters ----------------The Marketplace Resources----------------FAQ & Online HelpLinks & Online ResourcesResearch Q&A;ARWZ Approved!  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You can vote in polls in this forum Alternative Reality Web Zine: ISSN# 1559-3037 All materials on these pages (including fiction, poetry, essays, articles, interviews and opinion pieces) are copyrighted to the original authors and may not be reproduced without permission.
