13 Ways to Use The Eyes
13 WAYS TO USE THE EYES:
For examples, I've pulled some (copyrighted) sentences from my first release BANGED UP, my best-selling erotic romance! It's available in ebook and Kindle!
1. His gaze flicked to the gun, before returning to the shapely naked thighs which couldn’t belong to a kid—no way.
2. She studied the angle of his jaw, the curve of his upper lip, and the edge of his brow before looking into his eyes.
3. He studied the contrast of her delicate, white hand next to his darker skin.
4. She eyed him skeptically through the long mane of red hair falling over her face.
5. Hands planted on her hips, she looked at him in astonishment.
6. Colby looked up to see Mace’s dark eyes attempting to peer into her soul.
7. His heated stare burned her, leaving a sensation of hot liquid flowing down to her toes, making her knees wobble.
8. She stared at him, no smile, eyes serious.
9. It was only fair after feeling his eyes burn her bare skin earlier.
10. His heart thumped a little harder while he watched her slender figure work her way across the PT room.
11. He dropped his arms to his side, his eyes dark, clouded, as he watched her release the top button and slowly slide the zipper down.
12. Mace reluctantly released the shirt, pushing away the feeling of regret, and watched the fabric catch on her hip.
13. She shot him an incredulous look.

13 Examples of "Good" Screams
13 EXAMPLES OF "GOOD" SCREAMS:
I had posted this as my Facebook status (my personal account): "Be nice to your neighbors. They're the only ones who'll know the difference between your good scream and your bad scream." I started thinking how many times I made my character do the "good" scream. :) For examples, I've pulled some(copyrighted)sentences from my latest release DOUBLE DARE, my best-selling erotic interracial menage a trois! It's available in paperback and ebook!
1. She screamed in frustration again and yanked on the ropes, hard enough this time she heard the wood of the contraption she was attached to creak.
2. Quinn curled her fingers against the urge to selfishly yank the bottle out of the waiter’s pale fingers and scream: mine, mine, mine! (Okay, this is debatable whether it's really considered "good" or not)
3. She was ready to scream in frustration when she felt him push her thighs wider with his own, nudge his cock between her lips, grasp her ass cheeks with his large hands, and spread her wide.
4. She let out a long, low wail before screaming, “I dare you to fuck me!”
5. Quinn screamed as the spasms overtook her, rocking her whole body from the inside out.
6. Her orgasm pulsated from the center out, and she opened her mouth to scream.
7. Logan circled her clit faster, pushing against the hard button until she shattered, screaming nothing, everything, words which made no sense.
8. Her core pulsed as she threw back her head and screamed, “Oh God. Oh, my God!”
9. My God, he was humming against her clit, the vibrations drove her crazy, and she screamed into the cloth, which muffled it to a dull whimper.
10. Quinn clenched her fingers into fists and screamed with frustration into the cloth gag.
11. She turned a bit to give him better access and… Screamed.
12. She wanted to scream no. She couldn’t.
Since I ran out of good "screams" (no, I had plenty of good scenes, left but was specifically looking for the word "scream") I pulled an example of a bad scream for my last sentence:
13. Quinn screamed and kicked out with her heels, aiming for shins and higher.
2. Quinn curled her fingers against the urge to selfishly yank the bottle out of the waiter’s pale fingers and scream: mine, mine, mine! (Okay, this is debatable whether it's really considered "good" or not)

13 Different Ways to Say "Said"
13 DIFFERENT WAYS TO SAY "SAID":
As a writer, I am always looking for different ways to tag my characters' dialogue. The use of "said" over and over can get boring, so I play around with different dialogue tags. For examples, I've pulled some sentences from my latest release DOUBLE DARE, my best-selling erotic interracial menage a trois! It's available in paperback and ebook!
1. Lana lifted the two brown bags she had in her hands and announced, “We brought Tai food!”
2. “What do you want, Quinn?” Logan asked through his clenched teeth.
3. Ty moved back a bit and whispered, “Lo, I love you.”
4. “Holy shit,” Quinn blurted out before she could stop herself.
5. “Do you want it hard, baby?” Logan rasped, catching her earlobe between his teeth.
6. “Ah, fuck, she’s so tight,” Ty groaned out.
7. “I’m coming,” she cried out, her breathing harsh and rapid.
8. “Yes, you could love us,” Logan answered her.
9. “God, can it get any better than this?” she asked in a low whisper, her forehead pressed against both of them.
10. Ty yelled, “Fuck you!” from around the back of the truck, but Quinn could see him, kicking off his boots, pulling off his jeans, peeling his damp boxer briefs off, and throwing them all into the truck bed.
11. “The matching tigers?” she prodded.
12. “And we wanted to remember that turning point forever,” Ty finished for him, his jaw tight as Logan continued to lick down Ty’s hard length, his hot breath beating against Quinn’s skin.
13. “Fried chicken from Charlie’s Chicken Shack,” Lana crowed, propping her feet on Quinn’s desk.
2. “What do you want, Quinn?” Logan asked through his clenched teeth.
3. Ty moved back a bit and whispered, “Lo, I love you.”
4. “Holy shit,” Quinn blurted out before she could stop herself.
5. “Do you want it hard, baby?” Logan rasped, catching her earlobe between his teeth.

13 Dr. Seuss Quotes
13 DR. SEUSS QUOTES:
Theodor Seuss Geisel was more than just a great author of children's books. His first children's book, The Cat in the Hat became an instand success. In 1960 Bennett Cerf bet Geisel $50 that he couldn't write an entire book using only fifty words. The result was Green Eggs and Ham. Cerf never paid the $50 from the bet.
1. “Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.”
2. “Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.”
3. “Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.”
4. “I meant what I said and I said what I meant.”
5. “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.”
6. “Adults are just obsolete children and the hell with them.”
7. “If you never did you should. These things are fun and fun is good.”
8. “You can get help from teachers, but you are going to have to learn a lot by yourself, sitting alone in a room.”
9. “I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells.”
10. "So the writer who breeds more words than he needs, is making a chore for the reader who reads."
11. "Being crazy isn't enough."
12. "Only you can control your future."
13. "You’ll miss the best things if you keep your eyes shut."
Here's one we all recognize: “I do not like green eggs and ham I do not like them Sam I Am.”
