Remembe{red}: A Room of Your Own

The week's memoir assignment asks you to think of the setting of your life.

Settings are so significant in stories--especially our own, true stories.  How we create setting can make or break the feeling we are trying convey in our story.

YOUR ASSIGNMENT:
Think of a room from your past.  It can be any type of room at all.


Take a mental picture of that room.

What happened there?  What is it like?  What is the atmosphere there?  What are the smells, the sounds, the sights?  How does it feel?

Now reveal that snapshot to your reader.

Take us to that room.

And try to do it in 750 words or less.

Link up will be Tuesday!

Happy Remembering!

Remembe(red) - Kate Hopper/Memory

Kate Hopper guest-prompted for our memoir linkup this week. She asked us to write about a memory, to really mine it and write about what the memory meant to us.

We also have some new bling for you to display with your memoir posts. We're calling it Remembe(red).

Try to visit as many linkups as you can. Comments are always appreciated.

Okay - link up!
