More of the words I challenged myself on: sudden(ly), glance, blush, sigh.

But it made me make my characters own their actions instead of leaving weak spots, so I'm glad I did it.<br />@Charity - thanks for responding even though you've already been tagged for this! You're so popular :) I read the excerpt from your book and now I've got March circled in my planner for your debut release. Congratulations! Great cover, by the way :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02761957626470404637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-921516908568826377.post-63907646463857787402012-10-06T17:12:53.051-04:002012-10-06T17:12:53.051-04:00That's a whole lot of looks.

The slight difference was I had to share the scene around the first time I used look in my story. You can find it <a href="http://charitywrites.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-first-look-challenge-magic-wakes.html" rel="nofollow">Here</a>. It's from my book that's coming out in Feb. :D<br /><br />I did the search and found I used some form of look 252 times in 300 pages. *sigh* it still seems like a lot. I'll have to improve on that next book.
