Your task this week is simple:
I want you to come up with a single sentence.
Just one.
No more than thirteen words long.
This sentence is meant to be the end of a story. The last sentence.
You can deposit this sentence in the comments below.
Again: just one, please.
Not a whole story.
Just one sentence — the end to an as-yet-incomplete story.
Do this by next Friday, the 18th, noon EST.
Begin.
