Here's me horsing around. Just seeing what I could come up with with a "It was a dark and stormy night" kind of beginning!! Lol.
-------------------- CHAPTER 1 --------------------
It was a dark and stormy night. Susan crossed the forty yards from the depot to her car, as she hurried to get inside the warmth of her car. She slammed the door shut, removed her gloves, and rubbed her hands , feeling the heat slowly spread across her palms. She was afraid of storms, and preferred to avoid travelling outside during one. The power was out in the north of the city, and she could see the light above the town beyond that , giving it an ethereal sort of frame. She switched on her music deck, and it continued to play the same song she was listening to when she had arrived here at the depot. As the tunes began to fill the silence of the car, she began to relax a little more.
She started the engine up, and pointed her car towards exit 91 , and settled down to the drive back home. She always liked the hypnotic effect of the calm drive, toward the end of the day , when all that lay before here was dinner, some wine, and a peaceful nights sleep. But there was something today, at the back of her mind, that told her things were not going to be the same. She wondered for a moment about it, then discarded the thought , putting it down to tiredness.
.
Quoting: abhie  i thought that was pretty damngood. It is not easy to make "dark and stormy night" sound interesting, but i wanted to keep reading more. do you have more? lol. that was fun!! Thanks for sharing too. Thanks. You're kind. :) I'll keep adding to that. That was impromptu. No planning, no design.  p.s. This thread can use that as a sort of writers inspiration. More will come as we go along.
