STORY STARTER

Write a descriptive narrative about the world your novel is set in.

Step away from your main plot and consider how the world shapes your story. If your story takes place somewhere familiar (like the world today), focus on which elements of it will play into your story.

The Cherry On Top Setting

South of Manhattan, modern day. The hustle and bustle of the city is inescapably loud, heard through every building on every street. “The big apple”, a rightfully earned name, filled with restaurants aplenty, but one in particular stands out from the rest. Sitting feet away from the Chabad of the Diamond District, Forno del Romano is at the centre of its community. 21 W 46th St, New York, NY, 10036. What once sat a wine and spirits store, now houses the familial pride of the local Jewish community. Or so the Romanos thought. While living in New York does have its perks, it comes with quite the expense, forcing the Romanos to cut costs with their living situation. Now living just above their bakery in a crammed one bed one bath, the family tries their best to hide the decline of business from their daughter Kylie.
