Writing Question
Does the first chapter of my book sound good? any suggestions?
There it was. The waterfall was no different than usual. At first, I thought it was my eyes seeing the streak of red flow down to the base of the falls, then I knew it wasn’t my eyes when the whole thing turned red. Then something seemed to fall as well. A shape of some sort. I crept closer to take a look.
The human body surprised me so much that I jumped back.

It’s a good thing it’s the weekend, I thought aloud. Down the halway my grandfather would be asleep.

I got the cereal out of the pantry and poured my milk on it. Grandpa’s words rang around in my ears, “Eat too much of that cereal, Beatrix, and I’ll be signing you into the hospital!”
I had no idea where he got that. As I pondered the possibilities, I got that feeling in my head again.I stopped eating my cereal and quickly grabbed my head. I didn’t want that feeling again.
“What’s wrong? Headache?” A voice asked me. I turned around and sa
