Meeting 9 Prompt
Sat Aug 24, 2019 12:44 am
Be-All and End-All
The opening lines of a story carry a lot of responsibility. You can almost think of them as the white rabbit showing up and asking Alice to follow him: the reader has to decide whether to follow despite not knowing what will happen next, and it's the writer's job to convince them to go down the rabbit hole.
This week, our writing prompts all revolve around different ways to start a story:
1. Write a story that starts with action
2. Write a story that begins with dialogue.
3. Write a story that starts with a question.
4. Write a story that starts by presenting a highly unusual scene.
5. Write a story that starts with the same like as it ends.
