LG Keltner has tagged me to contribute to "U Got the Look" Meme!
This meme asks that you go to your current WIP,
hunt down the word
LOOK,
and post the surrounding paragraphs.
Then tag 5 people.
Arriving at my new apartment, I was overtaken by a
feeling of amazement! The agent, who had
booked this place on my behalf, had done a wonderful job. I made a mental note to send her something to
thank her for her efforts, early next week.
Looking around, I decided that the contemporary
style in which it was furnished, was definitely staying.
It was so different to my parents’ home. I was now glad that I had
decided to find a fully furnished apartment.
If I had purchased one where I needed to buy my own, I probably would
have stayed with something similar to my parents and would never have experienced
such a different style.
New experiences, a new life, this is why I had moved
here.
Tomorrow I would start my new job. I was feeling a little nervous, but I was
sure that I was up for the challenge.
Advertising editor for a new fashion magazine called
TINT, this will certainly be another milestone in my new life.
But for today, I am going to unpack my gear and make
this apartment feel more personal and then I am going to just hang.
TINT is a paranormal romance based around Sandy, (a young girl just out of college), who has moved from her parents home to take on the big city lifestyle and a powerful new job in the world of fashion. But this experience turns out to be very different from the one she anticipated as her life turns into a desperate struggle to survive, from the moment she meets a mysterious model named, Slater.

Oh this is a fun meme! I like your excerpt. You've set the stage here with a perfect new beginning for Sandy, now I'm wondering what's going to mess it all up! I'll have to "look" in my wip and see what I come up with. Thanks for tagging me! (:
Oooh, the LOOK! Okay, Carolyn, I'll take the challenge and post my own LOOK! Thanks for thinking of me:)
I like a contemporary style, too. Can I move in with your character? :D Huzzah Knight Aidensdein!
Tint sounds like a good read. I'll have to check it out! ^^ :)
Go Knight Aidensdein! ;D
Nice excerpt. Seems like the calm before the storm. Thanks for the tag! My WIP (for NaNo) is very rough though - you've been warned. :)
Nice excerpt. What a fun tag. Young girl tackling a big city, I can only imagine the paranormal elements. Sounds great.
I'm curious about where the story will go from here! Great paragraphs!
