Rewrite: Chapter 1

I’ve started! Finally!

Chapter 1 was quite easy to edit and didn’t need to be rewritten. Only some of the information had to be adjusted, and that was mainly to do with my main character’s change of personality. I always worry about the opening line because I think it needs to grab the reader straight away.

This is the opening sentence. What do you think?

“It’s a six minute walk, what can possibly go wrong?” Nikki said, pushing her best friend closer to the car.
