Let's write!


Dear children, 

I would like all of you to have a go at writing a story starting with one of the following:
  • “Evening brought the breeze, channelled by the concrete blocks, blowing across Singapore…” - From First Loves, Philip Jeyaretnam 
  • I was walking across the bridge 
  • It’s been a long time since …… 
  • Today is my first day…….. 
  • It was all over the news this morning! 
  • Along the way, I caught glimpses of the railway tracks…. 
  • “Doors closing. Please stand clear of the doors.” 
  • The time has come …..

Use not more than 500 words. 
Email me your story before 5 October (Friday). 

I will choose as many good pieces of writing as I can for a writing competition - Flash Fiction Writing Competition. It is jointly organized by National Library Board and Singapore Press Holdings Ltd in conjunction with READ! Singapore 2012.
  • Note: 
    This must be your original story.
    Do not seek help from anyone - parents, tutors or peers.

Have fun!
