Sensory Language
In my novel, Nobody by: Jennifer Lynn Barnes, the main character is Claire Ryan and Nix. Claire is a sixteen years old girl, she has hazel eyes, freckles, light brown hair. and in my head her voice is squeaky like a little girl's. "...the haphazard spread of her (Claire) hair. Her fingernails were uneven. Her wrists were small. She had six freckles on one shoulder and four on the other." "You (Claire) have light brown hair. I think your eyes are green. Your veins are blue. My (Nix) hair is black. I'm not sure about my eyes. When I bleed, I bleed red." Nix is a seventeen year old trained assassin. "His eyes were blue, so light that she (Claire) wondered if they glowed in the dark. His hair was jet black and long, and all up and down one arm, there were tattoos--black lines that slashed across his arms, each crossing the one before it in an uneven X." "There was a thin white line across his neck, and even from a distance, she could see a crescent scar on the left side of his jaw. His cheekbones were sharp, his mouth soft. He was the most beautiful boy she'd (Claire) ever seen, and he was going to kill her." All of this makes me jump in excitement because the author writes very descriptive and when there's a new problem or character can't put the book down! :) <3
