My rooftop story took flight this week and might make it into one of my novels. The character names might change but I really like what I started. There’s something both romantic and different about meetings that take place above a big city.
To me, hidden places are hard to find in all the hustle and bustle of the crowds. The quiet can feel like a sanctuary where you can escape the long lines and just breath above the exhaust.
Imagine finding a place where you can savor a sandwich during the middle of your work day. The rat race of the 9-5 fades away for a few seconds. Imagine being comfortable around someone else enough to sit in silence together.
Where is your sanctuary? If your fingers still aren’t flying, then write about that place for 5-10 minutes as we go into the weekend. Then, work on expanding it. Find the root of your story.
Writing a short is about getting to the heart of the story in a short amount of time. The words are enough to satisfy the reader and they feel like they have a full story. Images need to be clear and writing a short forces you to leave out all the adjectives that you don’t need. Clean and simple writing can be more powerful that something wordy. I’ll leave you to your prompt.
My posts are Monday to Friday!
