SNIPPED
Another Round of Teaser Tuesday
After my writing freak-out of the last two weeks, I forced myself to sit down and write. In doing so, an entirely unplanned character popped in to say hello. Not only that, she's forcing me to rework some of the locations I had planned before she showed up. But, I rather like her, so I think she'll stick around for a while. In this teaser, Hailey Sinclair is introduced to the reader. Anna has just arrived at a job site for a Habitat for Humanity house. As always, this is rough and unedited. It's what flowed from my head to my fingers in the first round of writing.

I can already tell I will like this Hailey character. I love ditzes. And your blog is gorgeous!
I can totally see the characters so clearly from just this small snippet. There's something about the little things - there's nothing I have to keep her hair from getting stuck in a drill...- that make it come to life. Love it!
I'm picturing Hailey's hair getting caught in a drill hehe.
Good teaser :)
Aww. A ditz. A cute ditz. :D I don't usually like ditzes, cute or otherwise, but this one is growing on me.
aww Hailey seems sweet. :)
I love your little details. I saw everything perfectly. :)
Awesome characterization, and in such a short snip! This line really helped nail Hailey (um, no pun intended!):
She's more the bake sale or decoration committee chair type of person.
Loved it!
I like Hailey. Keep your fingers typing. I want to see her come to life.
I love the last line: "I would forget my head if it weren't attached." LOL.
This is good -- your characters are really alive in the page. I especially liked: "Her khaki pants and sky blue sweater highlighted her perfect ivory and pink skin, but accentuated that she had never painted a house."
Nice description. I could instantly see the people and location. :D
LOL!! I'd forget my head too if it weren't attached to my body!!! Great snip, your writing totally rocks. And I can picture this scene!!
Great characterisation. I already like Hailey! I don't usually like ditz but there is someting utterly adorable about her.
I like Hailey! The dialogue was great and the descriptions awesome! Haha, I can picture her hair getting caught in a drill. Ouch!
