Example from Twilight I shouldn't have.His tone was hard."Your thinking is insane.Challenged doesn't matter."Gritting teeth andGasped deep breaths paused.My curious, composed voiceWas suddenly old.How long had I been staring at the roadWhile please that he was honest? Eyes worried wider during the daytime,Burned by the sun. • -words/ phrases from page 185 of Twilight by Stephenie Meyer From www.youngwritersproject.com
