Your handyman protagonist flips houses for a living. As he’s knocking down a wall in his latest home, he discovers a false wall in one of the bedrooms with a decaying skeleton behind it. Describe the scene as it unfolds.
One Stop for Writers
Write the scene of discovery (i.e., tell a story), or brainstorm and create a list of related ideas.
Here’s five story elements to consider:
- Character
- Setting
- Plot
- Conflict
- Resolution
Never forget, writing is a process. The first draft is always a mess.
The first draft of anything is shit.
