Angela, I have no idea if you will read this or not I just now saw that you are in Africa, but I had to comment. This is perfect. I am so sorry i was not around when you sent it to me to look at before you posted. Long story but I have been away from my computer for a couple of months. I just now got back on while my kids are at summer camp and found your message. I read the courtroom scene and it is brillant. You have decribed it perfectly and while using every sensory detail. i have been in a courtroom almost every day for the past 20 years and i could not have described it nearly as accurate as you have. You did Justice with this one!
You are amazing. Have a safe and fun trip.

These are great! I’m going to send my thriller writer friends over to check this out. I think they’d love it!

Great post, again. I felt like I was there too — and I was so glad I wasn’t!

Awesome post, Angela! We should all carry notebooks everywhere we go and write down descriptions using all of our senses. Great exercise!

This entry is perfect timing for me! It dropped me right into the court room where one of my characters is about find herself! Thank you!!

Very cool. I’m wondering, do you spend any time on location with these ones to come up with synonyms? It all sounds very authentic.

Excellent! And to think most of it is from your digging deep into your imagination. (Now spill about the jail cell…. 😀 )

Nope, all in my head. The Jail Cell entry, however…muahahahaa, well there’s an innocent story behind that, honest!

Hmmm. So is this from personal experience, Angela? ;)

Great job as usual. Can't wait for the juvenile center one. Not that I need it. But you never know.
