2. Go to line 7
3. Copy down the next seven lines as they are – no cheating
4. Tag 7 other authors

The is from the gnome book that still doesn’t have a name:

“No one blames you, Tara. We just hate that it happened. I wish the two of you could put it behind you.”
“Are you serious?” she asked incredulously. “He cheated on me. That’s that.”
“Okay, I understand. Thanks for considering inviting him, though. You know he’s always a lot of fun.”
“Yeah, a real blast,” muttered Tara after they hung up.
It was dusk when she heard a truck pulling up to the house. She looked outside and realized

He! He! Thanks for tagging me!!! I just posted my 7. Page 7 wasn’t nearly as fun as 77, so I used that. I do love a blog tag! 😉

Thanks for doing it, LL. Okay, my gnome title of the day: Knock Knock. Who’s There? Gnome.

See? They just keep getting worse. I think my brain is wracked out. I think “Gnome: Death on the Doorstep” is my current fav. Although Gnome: Perish by Pottery… or the punishment of the pottery… Gnome: Eleven Ceramic Inches of Terror!

  Ooh, ooh, how about…Death by Gnome-means……. hee hee.

Eek! Realised what?? I want to know!

  LOL, Deniz, you’re the second person that’s asked me that. Page 7 is definitely not the most exciting page in the book. She had just realized that the trucks she had hired to bring her paintings to the house had arrived. See, not exciting.
