Story Starter! Where Is She Going?
Photo courtesy of: Jill Wellington; courtesy of: PixabayThis is a great picture for scene setting and character development. It opens the imagination to so many possibilities.
The pretty platinum blonde, a chiffon scarf wrapped artfully around her head, cruising in her turquoise car through the sun-drenched country side.
What secrets linger behind her serene expression? What does she see through the passenger side window?
Not only can a writer speculate where she's going, but the vintage car and the clothes give fodder for other possibilities. Since they both represent a distinct time period, it's important that writers stay true to the norms of that era: the music, the current events, the technology, the societal roles of men and women.
For accuracy and authenticity, it may require research. Even a fiction piece, demands that historical details be carefully presented. Executing this task well yields an author credibility and readers.
So, where is this woman going? Here's my list:
1. Drive-In Movie (Later that night.)2. Elvis Concert3. The Beach4. Cocktail Party5. Sister's House To Play Cards6. Bowling League Game7. To Meet Her Secret Lover8. To Hear John F. Kennedy Give A Speech
Where do you think she's going?
