The Piano in the Corner
The old piano sat in the corner of the room, a silent monument to the past, its wood scratched and chipped from decades of life lived. Dust lay thick on its once-polished surface, catching the afternoon light in muted glimmers. The brass pedals, once shining bright under the sun, were now dull and cold, their edges worn smooth by countless footsteps and hurried practice sessions. The keys, yellowed and uneven from years of wear, seemed to sigh under her touch, as if aware that their music had been forgotten for far too long. Yet today, something inside Nora drew her to it—a pull she couldn’t name, a whisper of memory and longing that made her heart ache.

One Week of Pleasing and Angry Things
Anne Bernays and Pamela Painter — What if? Writing Exercises for Fiction Writers prompts — The Exercise: Over the period of a week or so, write down ten things that made you angry, but don’t try to explain why. Over the same time period, do the same for ten things that pleased you. Be very specific. Statements like, “I felt good when I woke on Wednesday morning,” are too vague to carry any conviction~~ and this could have happened to anyone. “I ran into Ms. Butler, my third-grade teacher, in the Star Market, and she said hello to me by my right name” is specific and could only have happened to you. The Objective: You may not use most of what you’ve written down, but you will have practiced viewing your immediate world as a garden full of fictional seeds.
