I love sensory details: smell, sound, sight, touch, taste, and yes, a 6th, extrasensory perception/intuition. Use as many of these as you like to write a short story…one page or less.
You are walking on a beach and see this little girl. As you get closer, she looks up and asks you to write her name in the sand. What does her little voice sound like? What is her name, and what do you do? Do you have a conversation? What are the sounds and smells around you?
Wonderful prompt. I always love writing the sensory details. It brings a scene to life.
My husband, who is not a reader except for hot rod motor magazines and parts, surprisingly has taken an interest in our site. He says over coffee yesterday morning, “Edie.” I said who? He said, “The little girls name.” Progress!
I like the “6th” sense being mentioned with the others. It adds a new dimension to writing.
