It's Summer fair time and you are going to a summer fair, rummage sale, boot sale or jumble sale.
Is it indoors or out?
If it's indoors what is the building like? Is it raining outside?
If it's outside, is it in a street, a field, a car park? Is it raining? Is it
warm or cold.
Imagine the crush of people waiting for the grand opening, the rush to the various stalls, the arguments over second hand items of clothing and the respective prices. The smells, the sounds, the children getting excited. You've got the message? Now write about it.
Story Writers - a short story of about 2000 words of an incident at the fair - you can start your tale before the sale if you need to portray events leading up to it.
Article writers - Write an article of about 1500 words on a sale, fictitious or otherwise or write an article on fund raising sales in general.
Play Writers - Write a play set around a stall at a Summer fair.
Poets - Imagine a fair and the items for sale, you can pick one item or more or even the person selling or buying but use the vision as a poem of no more than eighty lines.
