On my blog, we turn Carmi's theme into a game. I find a photo that fits his theme, then I choose a title of a story that might fit his theme and a single line from that otherwise unwritten story. After that, it's your turn to create a title and a single line of your story to fit the photo. Some weeks, people get really creative. Here's one from a couple of weeks ago that was fairly popular, if you need to see some examples.
So, ready to go "greyish"?
Here's my photo:
My single line is: Bobby held my hand tighter and whispered, "Is that a door at the end?"
Okay, it's all yours now. Give it a try and play along -- a title and a single line from a story to "match" the picture.
The Field Trip

When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?
Sorry. I just couldn't help myself. :)
Title: Return to Hogwarts
ReplyDeleteFirst Line: Harry was sure that Ron would get to the door before the new first years pelted him with Tomatoes, but wasn't sure that he would.
It DOES look like Hogwarts! I never thought of that!
DeleteTitle: Skewed Straight
ReplyDeleteFirst line: The play of light and arch in the corridor gave one the feeling of being funneled towards the door at the end.
P.S. Thanks for the flashback idea on the story I'm writing. As for the Romanians . . . in real life, I think they were actually Russians.
And here I was thinking it was that long-haired Italian fellow you met in China..... ;)
DeleteTitle: It Happened One Saturday Afternoon
ReplyDeleteFirst line: A faint breeze brushed by Richard, chilling him as he sat in the sunlight streaming through the window.
