Parking Place

Have you ever had your eye on a parking place only to have someone swing into it by coming down the lane the wrong direction! Parking places offer plenty of stories. Where are the people going? Are parking places hard to come by? Is your character in a hurry? Is the weather a factor?

Write a scene centered around a parking place. Include the following:
  • Emotion
  • Smell
  • Sound

Hi David,

Great job. Your incorporation of the senses pulls the reader into the scene...the smells in the car, the report of glass crashing, the visual of the hulking shadow. And the twist at the end is thought provoking. Loved it. Thanks so much for sharing the link.
