IMPROMPTU #110: Bianca Stone Ghost Line

June 06, 2018 by Ellie Sawatzky

Read "The Future is Here" by Bianca Stone. Use the last two lines as your ghost lines (invisible first lines of your story, poem, etc.):

"Nothing bad can touch this life
I haven't already imagined."

Set a timer and free write for 5-10 minutes (or however long you want), using these lines as inspiration.
