Give me the title of a story I’ve never written, and feedback telling me what you liked best about it, and I will tell you any of: the first sentence, the last sentence, the thing that made me want to write it, the biggest problem I had while writing it, why it almost never got submitted to magazines, the scene that hit the cutting room floor but that I wish I’d been able to salvage, or something else that I want readers to know.
(Like swan_tower I make no promises that these won’t turn into real stories. Or that they will, for that matter. Because the ways in which ideas filter through time and brainspace to become stories are still mostly a mystery to me.)
