Here's another one from my cutting room floor. It was supposed to be the start of a story. I like what I have written, but I haven't been able to get far. I am usually an outliner, but this was my attempt at discovery writing. It succeeded only in convincing me to continue outlining. I have no clue where the story would go after the couple of pages that I have already written.
I am italicizing the quote because it is italicized in the story, to indicate that it is the start of a letter sent to Lois.
I live in Cowsheads. Go ahead and laugh -- Everyone else does. And yes, it is a small town. I love it here. But the thing about small towns is that everyone knows everybody else’s business, so I know that what is happening here ought to be impossible.
Joy,
Lynn
