National Day on Writing: Tempe's Tale



The following is Tempe 's horrifying Halloween short story, composed by students and staff, on October 22, 2012, National Day on Writing:

IT WAS A DARK AND STORMY NIGHT…
The dog was barking. When his flip flop broke. Anne was sitting in the writing center all alone when the lights mysteriously turned off. The shadows were lurking and in the distance the rain was impairing the vision of drivers. She waved her arms frantically but to no avail. I saw my ex-husband. And, one accidentally ran over him when he was lamenting his broken flip flop. Suddenly, the elevator bell rang. He was holding his-now-girlfriend’s hand. He died. Beep He looked very happy; that’s all I ever wished him, was happiness. He must now travel to the underworld. Anne froze in her seat, dreading what she knew would come next. It’s a beautiful day to save lives.
