Write a story using a newspaper article headline. Day 3. Fired cop indicted in shooting.

in writingexercise •  7 years ago 

This is a new writing exercise for all of us aspiring fiction writers. Every day for the next week I will be posting a newspaper article without any context behind it.

The point of this exercise is to create a short fiction story based on the headline of the article regardless of what content originally followed it.

Let's use the tag #writingexercise

Every day during the next week I will upvote my favorite story at 100% which is currently about $1.10.

Together we can continue to make fiction a big part of Steemit.

DAY 3.

Fired cop indicted in shooting.

  • View the headline that I provide each day

  • Come up with a story for that headline. It can be either a short fiction story or a newspaper article

  • Write a short piece. Take all the time you want.

  • Publish your piece using the title "Writing Exercise", the Day, and the title of the headline. IE.... Writing Exercise - Day 3: Fired cop indicted in shooting.

Each day I will go through and upvote my favorite story at 100% which is currently $1.10.

If this exercise gains traction then it may become a permanent thing. If you have any ideas, comments, or concerns please let me know.

Please upvote and RESTEEM this to give it better exposure.

My other favorite writing exercise right now is called #freewrite and is hosted by @mariannewest
