Wednesday Writing Challenge: 100 Words

Welcome to the Wednesday Writing Challenge!

Every Wednesday, I pose a new writing challenge here on the blog. These challenges come from books on writing, classes I've taken on creative writing, or sometimes just from my own imagination. If you're an author, hopefully they will help you get your writing juices flowing and help you improve your craft.

 

 

??  Want to Participate  ??

The Wednesday Challenges are open to all readers. In order to participate, simply comment on the challenge post with your response to the exercise. Not only is it good practice, but you could win something nifty and fun!

 And now...

***Here's Today's Challenge!***

Expand your imagination.

Write a 100-word scene 

from the point of view of a foreign tourist visiting your home country.

 

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hints and Tips:

.

What are some of the first and most important things a tourist would notice about your home country? Try to avoid cliches like historical landmarks of famous tourist traps: think about things like how the climate feels to them, what are the smells and sounds around them?

Focus on the things that will stick out in a visitor's immediate first impression.

Give me your best, darlings!!
