WRITING OBSTACLE

Write the climax of a murder mystery story without any reference to the victim or the crime itself.

The climax can be defined as the point in the story with the highest tension and stakes. How will you drive the story without mentioning the crime?

Beneath The Surface

And that’s when It finally revealed itself, she had done it, and no one can see.

I surrender to the rocks. My skin shivers at the feeling of my lose clothing as my body freely descends into the water. The water grows colder and colder until the waves fade into silence and the surface becomes dark. Eyes closed, my arms stretch. The tides consume me, not the least bit afraid. Gold and red flashing through my vision as my mind slips away, drowning with my body. My mouth screams for a way, only to be silenced by the sea and I. Confident now she has to be, skin meets skin and there’s nothing. No sound. No air. No escape.
