Exercise #276: Scene
Posted 8/8/08

Today's exercise comes from Tyger Valverde.

A nurse went walking one morning in the woods by a creek. She came upon a bench. On the bench, laid out to dry, were two wet pairs of pants, one wet pair of shoes and a belt. No shirt, no socks or underwear. She didn’t see or hear anyone close by.

With your SUB, show us how we got to this point, or what happens next.

Critiquers, note if the story is believable.
