I humbly offer you six sentences from my current WIP.
It contains (mild) spoilers if you haven’t yet read the first book; ‘A Construct of Angels.’
I knew that Sara’s mind wasn’t ready to face the world – not yet.
Only hours after saving humanity – and me – from the clutches of the Dark Realm, she lay unconscious and still in the bed behind me, monitored by the human machinery that would alert us to any improvement in her condition.
‘Human’ machinery… I snorted.
I’d have to get used to dropping the word ‘human’ from my thoughts – I was one of them now, as I had been when I was Joseph Barrett, Clyde Wilmslow, Pavel Yolkina, Akari Nakagawa …
I sighed.
So many lives; so many names to remember.

Write on in 2013!
