"There are three rules for writing. Unfortunately, no one knows what they are." --W. Somerset Maugham
Think back over your weekend. Write about a conversation you had using only quotations.
"I'm so sorry."
"What?"
"Do you have your insurance card?"
"Uh, yes."
"Do you want me to call the police?"
"What?"
"Are you okay?"
"Yes. Though I am upset, miss."
"But you are not hurt?"
"No."
"Can I have your name and address? Could you write it down?"
"Here, miss."
"What is your vehicle ID number?"
"Why you need this? Where are police?"
"I called them. Here they are."
So I got in a tiny tiny wreck this weekend. In the parking lot of my apartment. I backed into a neighbor's Altima...bad thing is, he can't speak English.
What a mess. But my car is fine. And his will be...soon.
