Welcome to our 114th Road Trip Wednesday!
Road Trip Wednesday is a ‘Blog Carnival,’ where YA Highway's
contributors post a weekly writing- or reading-related question that
begs to be answered. In the comments, you can hop from destination to
destination and get everybody's unique take on the topic.
We'd love for you to participate! Just answer the prompt on your own
blog and leave a link - or, if you prefer, you can include your answer
in the comments.

I ended up shipping a pair of characters from different books that I've written. I know that wasn't the idea, but as soon as I saw the topic it popped into my head and I couldn't resist! http://thezoe-trope.blogspot.com/2012/01/roadtrip-wednesday.html
ReplyDeleteFun fun fun…Ok there are technically three people talking in this scene :-)

This question begs to be answered with Tiny Cooper. http://www.rebeccabehrens.com/2012/01/rtw-mashup-dialogue_25.html
ReplyDeleteI used my MC and Leo Valdez from The Lost Hero. Thought that might be interesting! http://writeskatedream-jmckendry.blogspot.com/2012/01/ya-highway-rtw.html
ReplyDeleteI wimped out...but I have some pair-up suggestions for the authors of my favorite YA characters.

So fun! Except we have neither the time or the creativity today to come up with a post that really follows the rules. However we DID talk about dialogue!!!! Here is me and Pam's post:

This walking tour was a great way to see st etienne and learn about the incredible history. It was a high educational trip but the information was given in a easy to understand way whilst walking around one of the most beautiful cities. What could be better. Our guide was really nice and also answered a whole range of other questions about st etienne http://www.privatetoursinistanbul.com This was a great thing to do on our first day in st etienne and gave us a wonderful insight into everything, we also saw a lot of sights in a short space of time which would be good for people short in time. Some tips they gave were invaluable such as getting into Le Louvre without the lines... The answer you will have to find out on the tour! Have an Enjoy :)
