Cliff Hanger Saturday is a place where you can post your favorite "cliff hangers" of all time or just good writing at the end of the scene. (if not your own work, please give credit to the author and the book.) We all know, a scene should not end with anyone going to sleep. YAWN. But sometimes we see this. If the characters go to sleep, so do we.
So share favorites or write one here.
I have been posting excerpts for advertising and Rogue Phoenix Press. If you are writing an excerpt for something make sure that excerpt ends making the reader turn the page and read on. Do we want the reader up all night? Of course we do.
Excerpt from HighlandHonor
"Archibald--" she
whispered, panic sweeping through her. "He's found me." All she could
hear was the pounding of blood in her ears.
Before she could reach her
destination, before she could find safe refuge from him, his men had found her.
No! Not now. Not when she thought she had eluded them all.
A wave of fear sweeping
through her reminded her, that if caught, she would be taken back to Archibald
and forced to marry Lord Huntington.
"I'll help you down,
lass."
"No."
