We're hunkering down here for a very long snowstorm. It's supposed to snow for the next 24 hours. Last night the supermarket was crazy, everyone stocking up for a few days holed up in the house. I was one of those people, stocking up on chips and salsa, cheese and crackers, oatmeal and honey, wine. We've got stacks of DVDs and movies.
Come up in your head with a few characters who face a day of being stuck at home. What's their relationship with each other? Did they play properly like I did? Are they happy about being unable to get out, or are they stressed out? How about with being stuck with each other?
Write about what they did before the big snow-in, how they planned (or didn't).
Then write about the start of the snow... when did it? Did they wake up to it? Did they think for a while it wasn't actually going to happen, then it did?
And finally, write out what happens during the snow-in. How do they pass the time? Is there gonna be a big fight? Or maybe romance blooms?
Have fun with it.
I'm baaaaaaack!
