Day 51

Take a drive (literally or just in the story) and write about what's on the way.

Challenge: Tell it entirely in flashbacks.

Tip: Context is incredibly important in building a backdrop. A familiar road should seem familiar with memories and the like while a new one should seem uncertain. If there's a store that's a common hangout or avoided territory, why? As you write, fill in the gaps and pieces to create a realistic place.

Ready. Set. Drive.
