Storyteller Contest Redux

Sarath V Memorial Library
***** FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE *****

We’re going to try this again!  Here are the “inspiration pictures” for the Sarath V Memorial Library’s Storyteller Contest 119.   Your story should describe the place …  what happened there (or what will happen) ….  what’s it’s purpose? … what’s its secret? Is it from the past … present … or future?

Choose a picture and let your imagination run wild!  You can even incorporate more than one of these settings into your story if you want.

It can be a narrative (report … log … memorandum … etc.) or a full-blown story with characters.  It can be third-person or first-person … or even scripted like a play or screen play.
