Weekly Prompt: Mountains
This week’s Centina Pentina prompt is to write a story that takes place on a mountain
I grew up in Manhattan, a land of tall structures, but no mountains. The first time I saw a mountain was when I went to Maine as a child. Wow. One of my most memorable mountain experiences was driving through the White Clouds in New Hampshire on a night that the aurora borealis painted the sky with the most beautiful colors I’d ever seen.
I love mountains with all their majesty, beauty, and mystery. And of course, all sorts of things happen in the mountains, some ordinary and some beyond the realm of imagination.
This week’s prompt is to write a story that takes place in a mountain. I’m thinking love story, alien landing, undiscovered treasure, lost civilization. Your mountain tale can occur in the past, present, or future, and can be romance, adventure, literary fiction, science fiction, horror, crime, or any genre that inspires you.
