Amelia’s story
Amelia has been going through the difficult time at work, so she decided to cheer herself up by going in for a competition. The prize was a luxury holiday in the Carribean. Amelia has had to go without a holiday for several years now, so she really wanted to win. The competition was to write a story beginning ‘Suddenly the lights went out … . The problem was that Amelia could not think of an idea for the story.
‘How can I go about getting a good idea?,’ she asked me. ‘It must be something special so that the judges go for my story over all the others.’ I suggested she went to the library to go through some books of short stories – she might get some ideas there. So she went off to see what she could find.
She soon found some great stories. She read one and then another and she went on reading all afternoon. Then she noticed a strange smell and suddenly the lights went out. She looked up and saw that the library was on fire. Of course that gave her the idea for the story. I hope she wins.
