You could change "He felt a blow to the back of his neck that sent a shower of sparks falling across his vision and knocked him to the ground." to "A blow to the back of his head sent a shower of sparks across his vision and knocked him to the ground." It tightens the writing and makes us more present in his problems. I'm nervous for both of them. :)Siobhan Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00595776353171184107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8565893280908397886.post-5756365594184454752013-03-24T17:02:42.783-04:002013-03-24T17:02:42.783-04:00Intense scene.
