Good morning, Immersionists!

I’m so enjoying the new stories you’re drafting this month and in awe of the range of responses to these prompts. Thanks also for being such kind and enthusiastic supporters of each other’s work!

Today, we’re going to dabble with the poetic concept of "apostrophe."

“An address to a dead or absent person, or personification as if he or she were present.”

You can do this in a flash!
