Project Description:
Participants select one local spot that gives them a very special feeling and write a story about that spot. Use short stories with videos, digital photos or drawing to show us what your special place looks like. You may select any writing genre or write a poem to describe your special place, and share what is special about it for you. Is it a place where you prefer to be alone or with others? Create a word or picture so we can experience your special place. Decide what you can do to preserve the uniqueness of this place. Tell us what you did and whether there is anything you want others to do. If you are interested, you can also look for a partner and exchange postcards of special places with each other.
