Story Starter from The First Line

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

I’m quite late in posting Monday’s exercise although I had it in my To Do list.  A To Do list doesn’t help much if you ignore it to do other things (like reading) that aren’t on the list.

Going with the theme last week of Story Starter, here’s one for you from The First Line.  If you like what you write, why not send it in to them?  Their deadline is May 1st, 2010.  You can’t change the line in any way.

Paul and Miriam Kaufman met the old-fashioned way.

Story Starter

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

You may be wondering why I’m putting up an exercise on Tuesday instead of Monday. Well, I was waiting to see if Amber put one up first because I couldn’t remember if I was even Mondays or odd. Turns out, I must be odd — I bet you all knew that already ;)

This week start a story with the following line:

She missed her train

What do you guys think? Should we make this one into a contest? Let me know, if there is enough interest I’ll round up prizes and set some simple rules :)
