She posts a picture and you need to imagine it as a graphic for a book. You choose the genre and book title and then write a blurb that might appear on the back of the book.
The blurb should be 150 words or less (not including the title). The genre is wide-open.
Each blogger should include their blurb on their own blog, and link back to this post. Have fun with it. Go to the other posts and comment on the other blurbs. You can do fancy techy things with the photo.
(Join in if you dare...! It sounds like fun! I think this would be a lot of fun to do with students especially since they would be expected to write 150 words or less!)
The Voices
What would it take for people to understand her? She didn’t know why or how she knew things were going to happen. She just did.
Elena knew what was going to happen because the voices told her they would happen. She didn’t know everything but knew the things the voices told her about.
People started to look at her strangely when she tried to get them to move just before something terrible would have happened to them.
Whenever she got in the water and laid on her back, they spoke to her. At first, she was scared to get in the water but now she felt she had to so she could learn more. The more she heard, the more people she could help.
Then one day, the police were knocking on her door. How was she going to explain this to them? (143 words)
