How many of you are writing a novel solely out of a passion ...
That static-discharge tension is doing a lot here the sideways glances before he even speaks. And #amquerying? That's a brave place to be. How's the querying journey treating you so far?
Calculating directions was #interfered with by sideways glances from Ears. Like a static discharge that cut through the air, I could sense growing attention from him. It culminated in him asking, "I know you?"
