Word in a Sentence: (Today's sentence is straight out of Chapter Two of Choices Meant for Gods, which I think I'm allowed to do in a public forum now that the book is published.) Godric’s voice boomed as it left his chest, but the stones and their blankets of tapestries absorbed the sound, muffling it with the doors standing guard against the travelers.

Your turn! Do you have any good artistic and lovely sentences in you today?
