First Hook, Line and Sinker Awards

Author Kristi Gold and Vicky Dreiling sponsored a Writing Calisthenics workshop at the West Houston RWA Meeting in September, 2003.

Writing samples were created by participants at the workshop during a five minute writing exercise.  Jessica won the best "Sinker" (end of chapter hook) award with the following:

     "Milady."  He leaned forward, close enough to smell the scent of rose soap lingering in her hair.  "Do you trust me?"

     She smiled.  "Yes."

     "Good."  Slowly he slid his dagger from his belt and held it to the creamy white skin of her neck.
