WRITING OBSTACLE

Describe a setting, without mentioning any physical aspects of the place.

You could focus on the atmosphere, sounds, smells, how it makes the writer feel, etc, but try to not mention physical properties of this location. See if your readers can guess what kind of place you're describing!

My Home

When you step in, peace gives her greeting.

As if time unwound its gnarled branches to set you on its coziest boughs. Simple. Intimate. Whispering comforts, “No matter what madness lives outside in the whirlwind, here you will find rest.”


Nothing smacks fancy. Nothing feels modern. Like the grass, wind, sun, and stars, spin all around save this small stretch of earth - where God streatched out his hand and said, “Peace, be still.”

The garden where all nature knelt in obedience.


Some places, when you step outside, you feel the world breathe beneath your feet. The birdsong worships long within these rolling hills. A thousand little congregants rise with the cosmos to say, “Angels of love and faith settled here” - on our little homestead.
