The Last Place I Want to Be...

Writing Prompt 3


Poor little guy.
Taken from Google Images


This week you have created scenes for an unknown place (the one in the photo) and you have created a scene for a more familiar place - your bedroom.  For your last journal prompt this week that focuses on scene, I want you to think of the worst place you can imagine - the very last place you would like to be.  How would you describe this horrendous place?

Perhaps it’s a prison after being convicted of a crime you didn't commit.  Perhaps it’s stuck under an avalanche on Mt. Hood.  Perhaps you’re a bug who just fell into a glass of water.  Perhaps you are a caged animal and are being sent off to the zoo.  Perhaps you’re in hell.  Perhaps…

  Create a realistic sense of setting that describes this horrible place.  Remember to show your readers rather than tell them!  Take your readers there, and make us feel your pain!
