The version of my most recent story which was turned in is now online. This is the form it was in when this was updated at 12:28 today.
Any suggustions regarding the story or a possible title I would be very much appreciated still.
I noticed that the online story gives priority to margin width for some reason, meaning that it looks like a normal page in a full width window, but anything less it looks increasingly narrow.. so be aware of that.
PROMPT:
Write a short-short or the beginning of a short story in which a character or characters are introduced in a specific setting. Describe the place, the objects in that place, the atmosphere of the place. (A challenge might be to write an entire story that takes place in only one room.) Remember to think about the relationship between the character/s and objects/setting, and to consider how your p.o.v. character would describe this setting in particular. (1-3 typed pages.)
BACKGROUND:
I think four of four stories people have read in class have been about neglected 14-yr-old girls and I just had to do something about it. In particular, two involved the girl not having a monther, one involved both cheese sandwiches (I considered putting a line in my story of "and what the hell is a cheese sandwhich??" but then decided it would be too direct) and being on a date with a boy who blatantly ignored her (AND not having a mother, that story was like, the epitome of this lame crap genre), and one in which the girl talked to animals.
Also there was this girl at HS, a freshman when my friends and I were seniors, named Jonna, and she was the epitome of the irrational little blonde girl living in a fantasy world. She loved ponies and crap like that and had this utterly idealized idea of how she was going to meet prince charming on a beach in spain or something.. she had the most massive crush on my friend Alberto and in her mind made him out to be completely different than he actually was before she even met him. Yea.. so thats that.
