Hookers & Hangers Blogfest: Hookers

It's time for the Hookers & Hangers bloghop, hosted by the ladies at Falling For Fiction. The deal is to post as many first lines and last lines from chapters of your WIP as you can: Hookers today, Hangers on Wednesday.

I just completed my WIP first draft, The Memory Cell, last week and tried to get all my hookers ready for action (!) over the weekend, as I don't write in chapters, but with one thing and another... didn't happen. I've got nine for you, which is about a third of the book. But hey, that gives you more time to check out all the other great entries!

So, here we go...

Chapter 1: She had been feeling pretty good about herself that day, until it happened.

Chapter 2: The first thing she saw when she woke up was Michael lying twisted on the road.

Chapter 3: On the Saturday, Helen got up, dressed in her casual gear as she had since Tuesday, and arrived at the bedside at the normal time.

Chapter 4: Helen stayed with Michael on the Saturday night.

Chapter 5: On Monday morning, Julie Hanbury sat up in bed and, as she had done every day for the past week, opened up her laptop to trawl for any more news.

Chapter 6: He slept for a long time in the morning.

Chapter 7: When Michael was dressed in his new clothes, Helen helped him to walk out of the ward with the holdall over her shoulder.

Chapter 8: She awoke two hours later to find Michael staring at her owlishly.

Chapter 9: Julie was stuck.
