Trouble in the Tomb

Hello, I am back :). Thank you for the comments you gave me on my last post. I liked them. And here is another part.

While in college, Jeremy had watched Indiana Jones with some of his classmates. Dr. Irving always reminded him of Indiana Jones' father, right down to the deep voice. It had been weird when he had first come to work for them, now he knew he was going to miss it.

“Shouldn't I get back to camp?” Dr. Kempis asked after awhile. “We left them all alone without any supervision.”

Still Irving didn't look up from his book. “You wanted to come.”

“Well, I wasn't thinking-”

“I asked if you wanted to stay but you said you wished to see the arrival of Nathan Marshall. Besides, Sam is at camp. Everyone will be fine,” Irving interrupted.

Trouble in the Tomb

Hello! I thought I should post, since I haven't in awhile. I decided to re-write my books instead of editing them, that's what Jack always does and it seems to work for her. And my books need a lot of editing so re-writing might just be best.

Here is what I wrote so far today.

The sun was hammering in the windows, pounding down on Dr. Jeremy Huddleson's back like Dr. Kempis had the day he had stolen his socks and filled them with sand. He debating moving away from the large windows, but the only empty seat was right next to Dr. Kempis and the man was still annoyed with him over this morning's prank. Jeremy didn't know why. It had just been a small spider he had dropped on his head to wake him up.
“They're late.” Dr. Kempis tapped his watch with an impatient finger.
“I think you will live,” the last member of their party said around his book. Dr. Irving was the oldest of the three with a stock of white hair and bushy eyebrows that always made Jeremy think of caterpillars.
“I'm hungry,” Dr. Kempis whined.
“Grow up,” was all the sympathy Dr. Irving had for him.

Trouble in the Tomb

I haven't, been on in awhile so I thought I should. I don't really have anything to post yet, but I thought I could tell you what my first book will be about.

It is called Trouble in the Tomb and it is about four siblings whose parents died two years before the story starts.

Nathan Marshall, everyone calls him Nate, is nineteen and gets a job as an archaeologist in Egypt. He travels there with his siblings, Samuel (Sam) 15, Jerusha (Jessie) 13, and Madison (Maddie) 7. There they meet Dr. Jeremiah (Jeremy) Huddleson who is to be the head of their team.

Together they plan to finish work on an Egyptian tomb but are stopped when they are kidnapped by tomb robbers. Now they have to find a way to escape, alive.

I published this book once, but it wasn't very well written so I'm working on rewriting it and then editing it. I should have parts to post soon.

Sincerely,
Evie.
