Teaser Tuesday (June 22)

June 22, 2010 by Claire (The Captive Reader)

Teaser Tuesday is hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading.

Grab your current read. Let the book fall open to a random page. Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page. You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!

Lack of social skills: that was what made him a writer. Nothing to do with talent whatsoever.

~Pilgrims: A Lake Wobegon Romance by Garrison Keillor, p. 121

Very intriguing! Tho I’m against that, good writers need great talent.

Ah! So that explains it! I often wondered what made someone a writer. My teaser is from Forgive My Fins by Tera Lynn Childs. Happy reading!

I used to enjoy his work but I’ve fallen out of love with him and his work. My teaser this week is from How to Train Your Dragon.
