I was convinced we had something like this already but I didn't find anything, so here goes. :tongue

I saw this game on tumblr where they actually tag each other so I'm officially tagging everyone who wants to play, LOL.

The game works as follows: Someone says a random word, or two, or even three if you like, and the next person has to use the search function in their manuscript, look for that word, then post the first sentence or paragraph that pops up. Easy, right?

So, let's start with sun and small.

Oooh, your sentence sounds very interesting.

I haven't used malevolent, but:

I’ll be heading straight to Hell for this.

I haven't used malevolent, either, but I did use small. Here's its paragraph:

The last time we texted, I think I was in rehearsals for that play, the off-off-off-off-Broadway one-act. I thought I was okay--in a role that small you can't really screw up--but we never had more than maybe fifteen people in the audience, half of them friends and family, and it closed after five shows. I got paid, if you can call it that, but I was looking for work again, like, immediately. During.

New words: curious, tacit, or teacup.

“How curious,” said Erik. “Come, we will go together to survey the situation.” He turned to Talia. “What’s wrong?”

Try puppy or power.

both are in the manuscript.

“I agree with Caleb,” Ethan said. “This may be our only chance.”

Art and love.
