CAKO's homework
Your assignment is to write a single paragraph that DESCRIBES A LANDSCAPE to open a novel or short story (that you may wish continue to write!) It may help to imagine your opening as a set for a film that you are describing. (Check on the word tone list that I attached if you are searching for mood words.) You may introduce a character or some action into your landscape, but the description of the scene must be the main focus.
Have fun with this creative assignment, but plan on sharing orally with class!
OK I'm really bad at creative writing so I'm going to listen to this song for inspiration while I do it.
A quiet night. Wind whips across the surface of the murky river. Neon signs flicker on and off, revealing dismal alleyways full of trashed boards and circuits. Posters, like debris, are caught by the breeze and drift away. "EVALUATION DAY SOON," they announce repeatedly, though the outer ring is never prepared for it. A lone robot hides behind a dumpster, shivering quietly. The whirring of drone wings grows louder, and their searchlights illuminate the ground inches away. The bot hunches over, retracting its limbs into its chest. The drone pauses over the dumpster, hovering for a moment. The light is blinding and hot, but the bot remains still. Satisfied with its assessment, the drone passes on, leaving the bot in the darkness. Relaxing, it starts to sob. A cool air passes by.
