Day 14:* Write a story in the form of instructions. 

 

A note propped up on the coffee machine. He puts down his brief case and opens the envelope.

Tom:

Pick up Melody at Chloe’s before 11 tomorrow morning. There’s a sleep over. The address is 1300 Sanderling Drive. Don’t be later than that.

Jason has football practice beginning at 1 tomorrow afternoon. There's parking behind the school.

What about his golf game, he thinks. Where is his wife?

There’s chicken salad in the fridge for their lunch.

Also, I’m cancelling tonight’s dinner party. Call our guests if you can remember who they are.

He remembers one couple is his boss and her husband. Who the hell are the rest? How does he get in touch with them.

I suggest you have Bob get in touch with my lawyer, Kevin Mason at Mason, Mason & Kraut. There number is 1 617 555-7000.

Sandra

Shit. How dare she? What was he going to do now? He reached for his phone. Call Phil and ask him to call his other two golfing buddies. Then what?
