Opening line of your current WIP (also character name reveal!):
"Orrick had been with the agency long enough to know that wormholes didn’t just appear in teacups."
Opening line of your current WIP:
“My mom had just finished Heimlich maneuvering a meatball out of me when my sister burst through the front door of our restaurant and announced that she was going to be the next big reality television star.”
