WRITING OBSTACLE
Write a calm, peaceful story used to aid sleep.
Utilise smooth rhythm and consider your sentence structures and syntax, avoiding phrases that would be jarring or throw the reader out of the story. The content of the plot matters less than the tone.
‘Goodnight’
Teddy Bear Tim tucked himself into the fluffy white blanket - resting his head in the cloud-like pillow.
The stars calmly sung Tim a sweet lullaby, and the moonlight made him feel safe and sound.
A melody of crickets and the faint breeze brought Tim to close his cute little eyes.
His body felt light as a feather, as he slowly swayed and drifted into a dream.
Fading…
Fading…
Drifting…
…into the sweet respite
of a good night’s sleep.
… into the tranquil world
that waited for Tim in his
sweet,
sweet
dreams.
Gently, Teddy Bear Tim peeled away from his earthen vessel, his new form shone in a soft blue tinge.
Teddy Bear Tim winked to himself,
“Goodnight again, friend.”
