It's that time again, and this week, we are finally going to do some prose. Are you ready? Pencils sharpened? Creative thinking caps on? Ok, here it is:
Write the opening to the great American novel...
I know, this seems hard even to me. But that's the topic. Nothing to be done about it now!
When you're done, post it as a comment to this story.
Disclaimers and Caveats:
You are always free to write anything you want, on any topic, in any format.
If you don't like or understand the topic, feel free to alter it.
Try to keep your responses short enough that people can read them in one sitting...
Have fun!
Note: if you have a great topic for a future assignment, please feel free to send it to me care of the site (info@ibrattleboro.com) and I'll throw them in the hat for another time. However, I reserve the right to combine topics if we get a lot about a particular subject, such as monkeys...
