WRITING PROMPT (In case you missed our meeting last week)
THINK: Where does your story take place? Is there more than one location? Examples: A ghost town in the wild old west. A contemporary metropolis. A medieval household. A made-up fantasy land. Aboard a vessel, such as a spaceship, in the far-off future.
WRITE: Where does your story take place? How does this location influence your story?
DO: Sketch a map of your setting. Examples: Draw the layout of a city. Draw an island. Draw outer space. Draw the inside of a bedroom or house.
THINK: When does your story take place? Is there more than one time frame?
WRITE: Describe this time zone. Over a weekend? A month? A year? Several years? Examples: 18th century? Future? How does this time frame influence your story?
DO: Go to the YWP Nanowrimo website and create a username and password.
