I'm posting tomorrow's prompt early, because I'll be too busy Saturday. (See? One follower and already mega-responsible.)
In the last post, I mentioned rudeness in grocery stores. Where I live, people avoid eye-contact in public and work to ignore each other in produce aisles, dairy sections and just about all public places. When someone purposefully talks to you, even just to ask you where the bread is, it makes a big impression.
Think about what the normal, acceptable behavior is in some arena of your public life, and then create a character with a motive to break your unspoken rules.
And if you’re ever in my grocery store, feel free to say hi. I’ll direct you to the bread.
