Sheila from BookJourney is hosting this awesome mini-challenge which involves taking ten books titles and embedding them in a story 3-4 paragraphs long.
My titles are in bold:
My eyes ached as the First Light of the morning shone through the window. It had been a Whisper that had awoken me, that I was sure. The silence that followed felt Everlasting, like a Shadow fading into the light of the morning sun. I had been Up All Night, but I knew that I wasn't imagining the sound that had brought me from my dreams.
I sat up, gazing around me and that when I saw her - the Dead Witch Walking towards me. Or at least she looked dead to my eyes - a Beautiful Dead, but dead nonetheless. When I looked closer, I could see that there was something liquid coming out of her eyes and that's when I really thought things had gone astray - not only was this witch dead but she was Bleeding Violet tears.
"What..." but before I could get any words out, she said, "Hush, Hush". The words were Silent Echoes, ones in my head. I put my hand to my head and shut my eyes, willing the weirdness away. When I opened them again, she had vanished. "WTF!"
