WRITING OBSTACLE
Write a short paragraph about a holiday without repeating any adverbs or adjectives that you use.
Adverbs and adjectives are used to describe verbs and nouns, respectively. Limiting their use to once each will lead to you making more unusual choices – see what new descriptors you use!
Summer
Last summer, I traveled to a quiet coastal town where the sea shimmered under the afternoon sun. The streets carried the scent of fresh bread, and fishermen’s voices echoed along the harbor. I wandered through narrow alleys, discovering hidden cafés and listening to unfamiliar songs drifting from open windows. Each moment felt unhurried, and the days unfolded like pages in a journal I hadn’t yet written.
