I forced my eyes open. I wasn’t surprised that they were cloudy; I hadn’t thought to take my contacts out the night before. I rubbed my eyes, willing them to clear and focus. I winced at the light when they finally focused on the room around me. I knew by the sun’s position in the sky that I had probably slept through my alarm again. I’d been trying to get myself used to waking up early again, but it just hadn’t worked out like I had planned.
to be honest, it doesnt sound like much, but it's the beginning of character development and potentially even the opening paragraph for my book. not sure yet, but i really like the direction the characters are taking and i really have an idea for the plot which i really like so far, but it definitely needs work.
i hope to definitely see the hardback copies of this story being used as doorstops all over the country. :D

I like the piece.I write too. I think it's a good beginning and the first person narrative rocks because when books are written in the third person it's so impersonal and less closely tied directly to their thoughts. KUDOS and much luck writing.
