“Who’s Outside the Door?” by Joan Y. Edwards

I thought it would be fun to do a writing exercise. Last year we wrote about what we saw outside our window. This year, I thought it would be fun to write about guessing who is outside your door and then finding out who it really was…a mystery or a comedy.

In the case of you were expecting your sister and her boyfriend to be outside the door…

In your story, use these images to help you write your interpretation or write a different story altogether using at least the word “Door” in your title and having 200-300 words.  Please share your story  in the comment area or email it to me before midnight on January 31, 2023.

Blue Ribbon to show that You Make a Difference

I will choose up to three Blue Ribbon stories…for outstanding description, dialogue, and/or mystery or comedy elements.
