Lois Lane stood on the dock with the other reporters and television cameras. Checking her watch, she saw that it was almost 10:00 as she pulled her wool coat tighter against the bitter February wind. She moved closer to the front of the crowd and turned on her micro tape recorder as Police Commissioner Maggie Smith raised her hands for attention.
This story was a neat little surprise. The opening paragraph says a great deal with very few words and the writer's economic, yet descriptive style was seen throughout with good effect.
Thanks for bringing this gem to our attention AnnieB!
