Dress Less

This must have been the motto last week. I saw colleagues wearing colorful lounge pants or skirts to work, who would have denied even owning such clothes the day before. The boss man walked around in shorts and Birkenstocks. And don’t forget the guy in the loose linen shirt, wide-brimmed hat, and dark shades. All I say is… You Can Leave Your Hat On. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdwIKTLP_3Q Ehem… To the prompts. PT Prompt #348   Someone sits in a café off a crowded str

The First Questions Every Story Needs to Answer

A story does not fail because the writer lacked ideas. More often, it fails because the reader cannot tell what kind of promise the story is making. This week’s Writing Resources focus on the first questions every story needs to answer before the plot gets complicated, the cast expands, or the chapters start stacking up. Who is this story about?
