STORY STARTER

Write a story with an unexpected twist.

Consider the length of your story. It does not need to reach the max word limit to include a twist. One sentence can be enough. Consider, too, that a twist is not always a revelation, but can be subtle.

one two three

one two three


growing up and playing with blocks

stacking them higher and higher


one two three


going to school every day

making new friends and getting grades


one two three


getting a job and earning money

but never a break to pause


one two three


having little children that run around

not enough time to spend with them


one two three


they leave the house and with it

they also leave you


one two three


suddenly one day


one two three


turns into


three two one


and then it’s done.
