What's your favorite line of narration from a current WiP?
From something non-comics I'm hoping to post really soon: If Sami is drunk on life, Kevin feels like he’s drunk on Sami: buoyant and bright, like he could laugh, or sing, or murder someone. You probably don't know Kevin, but suffice to say I think it captures both his relationship with Sami and his way of looking at the world.
Though interestingly, looking for this has made it clear to me that dialogue is more my forte--nearly all my favorite lines in a story are dialogue. (That's next week!) What's a line or a few lines of narration you're happy with in a WiP this week?

Date: 2016-03-25 12:02 am (UTC)I do feel the same about mine, however - I am way, way better at dialogue. I used to think highly of my narration but it's gone a bit downhill over the years. Either that or my feelings about it have!
I don't really do 'WIP' these days, I'm in such a crunch that if I write it, I post it, and when I did that kind of thing it usually meant that I'd abandon it and never finish it. I just checked my archive to see if I'd kept any unpublished snippets I could share, but couldn't find anything. So...sadly I've got nothing for you. I just posted a dialogue-heavy narration-light piece though! So, while not in keeping with this weeks theme, that...exists? It's been a bad couple of months ;_;
