WRITING OBSTACLE

Your protagonist finds an object early in the story that becomes important later on.

Incorporate this foreshadowing subtly in the beginning, so its significance becomes a revelation.

Winter

He stands there,

His legs light and his arms heavy.

Closing his eyes as

The wind combs his hair and

Brush against his face.

He felt his hair fall strand by strand and

His body agonizingly melt liquid smooth.

Two steps

The winter flowers — roses, snowdrops, cyclamen covered in snow.

He held a silver filigree pendant necklace with Jets, the only thing shining, up to the moon.

His only thought, “What have I become now?”

Is winter the only season one feels nothing and everything?
