Quotes of the Month:
-"The rising sun sent fingers of light through the pale white mists of dawn. A wide plain spread out beneath them, bare and brown, its flatness here and there relieved by long, low hummocks."
-"Two seats away, the king had been drinking heavily all night. His broad face was flushed behind his great black beard. He made many a toast, laughed out loudly at every jest, and attacked each dish like a starving man, but beside him, the queen seemed as cold as an ice sculpture."
-"The godswood there was a garden, bright and airy, where tall red woods spread dappled shadows across tinkling streams, birds sang from hidden nests, and the air was spicy with the scent of flowers."
I like these quotes the best because of the imagery they create. All three of these sentences drip with branches, modifiers, and describers that paint a very pretty picture.
