Last week author, activist, teacher, and poet Maya Angelou died – a tragic loss for the world.

In her honour, this week’s #writingprompt draws inspiration from one of her quotes.

“I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way (s)he handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.”

Present one of your characters with any combination of the above challenges, add a goal such as a special celebration to prepare for, and see how they get on.

If you write something prompted by this, please let me know by sending an email to Judy(at)socket creative.com. With your permission, I’d love to publish it on SkyLightRain.com.
