WRITING OBSTACLE

Demonstrate. Incapacitate. Solidify.

In a story of no more than 10 sentences, use these three words in any order. The point is to create a story line that allows you to link them all naturally, without forcing them into random places.

POEM STARTER

You are convinced you can see mysterious figures lurking in the shadows. Write a poem about them.

Choose a specific style of poetry that would be suitable for this theme.

STORY STARTER

You wake up in the back seat of a car, not knowing where you are or where you're going. How does the story unfold...?

You don't have to write a horror/crime story, but think about what events could realistically have lead to this scenario.
