Two Sentence Tuesday -- A Few Extra Words

The last week or so has been good for rewriting.  I've managed to get quite a lot done and am currently happy with the results.
What more could one ask?
I'll cheat a wee bit and offer up a bit more than two from BloodLovers:

"A sound came from her grandfather that Eury could only think was a sigh. His voice lowered. It was almost sad.

'You hate me so much son, that when you married you took your wife's name.' "

I don't recall why as I write this, but I've felt the need to crack open the apocrypha and read about Enoch.
It's been interesting to read his trip through the levels of Heaven and what he found there including the creation of the zodiac.
Here's a bit:

"I have put every man's work in writing and none born on earth can remain hidden nor his works remain concealed.
2 I see all things."
(Chapter L. verses 1&2, Secrets of Enoch, The Lost Books of The Bible and The Forgotten Books of Eden. A Meridian Book, New American Library, 1974)

Two Sentence Tuesday -- Who's in Charge?

My latest WIP is being uncooperative at best. I was about 2000 words in when another character walked into the scene with yet another character beside him.
Okay.  Fine. They had their moment. I continued with what I wanted only to discover the second character believes herself to be important to the story.  I suspect she is correct, but I can't sort out how yet so I'm writing her back story.
As I write it the first interloper, her father, wants some attention as well.
All I can do is write what they tell me now and sort it all out afterward.

Two sentences I wrote for Bound: 

"Mitha was always cold. Even when the sun rained down on the mountain pastures and warmed the clear running streams that whispered and laughed down the hills, she was cold."

I started reading Freda Warrington's, Elfland (Tor 2009)
" 'To deny us is a devastating breach of tradition. It's not just for our own benefit--the Earth needs the flow of Elysian energy as much as we do.' "

Tuesday Twosomes -- Winding It Up

I've kept to my 1,000 words a day minimum plan for nearly a month now. I'm pleased to say that not only is the story nearing its end, but stuff actually happens in it.
I'd been concerned for a while because my characters didn't want to do anything. A cold, hard look at it told me it was one character gumming up the works. I could move the story along if she got left behind.
I did.
Serves her right
Two from Dead Broke:

"It was lazy here, lazy in the good way that warms you and makes you feel good about everything. It was like a perpetual Sunday morning, but without having to go to chuch."

I need more Philip K. Dick.
I read Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (Del Rey Books, 1968) and didn't want it to end. There's something compelling about his dystopia that hauls me in and holds me at laser tube point. I hated to leave, but I had to know how it ended.
The book was the inspiration for Blade Runner. Much as I loved the movie, the book is leaps and bounds better.

Two from DADOES:
" 'What were your instructions,' Eldon Rosen asked, 'if you wound up designating a human as android?'
'That's a departmental matter.' "
