STORY STARTER

Reflection.

Write a story that focuses on the theme of reflection. This could be self-reflection, a physical reflecton in a mirror, a reflection of light etc.

Reflection…

I stare.


Is this what people see?

Some girl; unbroken…

Untouched, clean.

Without a scratch.


A reflection can change how you think.

A reflection can change how they think.

Is this what I am? Do they see this?


Hand falls back- flies into the mirror.

Shatter a reflection, make it bleed.


Hate the way I’m seen…

I’m not what I seem, no.


I stare at the shattered shards.

My broken reflection is mirrored.


“That’s more like it.”
