The Day After
Thursday, November 1st, 2007
Okay, it is now the day after Halloween and I have been busy the last couple of days. No, nothing exciting like going out to parties or anything, just general around the house busy. I’m going to be even bussier after today, but I really really want to extend my NaBloPoMo determination from Heir To Magic over to this blog as well and make a commitment to post once a day throughout November here so I form the good habit of visiting this site every day *no matter what* and posting a prompt for you all.
So… what does that mean for today? The Day After. Take any event that your character has had to go through and show “the day after” — is it the day after Halloween and they have to clean egg off their house and TP out of the trees? (I hope none of you do, I thankfully don’t have to). Is it the day after their wedding and they are thinking about their future – is it good or bad? Is it the day after they got their first car and now they have to explain to their parents what happened to the car? Is it the day after aliens first made positive undeniable contact with earth and they are seeing about it on the news?
Take anything you can think of and go to the next day – the day the character is dreading the most or looking forward to the most, and show us what is happening to them and why.
