My boyfriend is a writer. Ideas are constantly flowing from his fingertips as stray thoughts are fleshed out, turned into stories, or merged with older stories. Some of them will sit for a year or two, like fine wine, before he returns to them. He holds an entire world in his mind, and uses it as backdrop for some of his tales. Others revolve around themes that are central to him, have roots in experience, or are children of a wandering mind that keeps asking "what if?"
He's sold one story. Including the title, it was 16 words long.

A long-expected adventure
At dusk, I looked out the window and drew my breath. It was time. I dressed warmly, grabbed the bag I had prepared, and headed out the door.
It was quite cold outside, but there was no wind and very few clouds. The crescent moon illuminated the path below. The forest was silent, my boots creaking on the snow the only sound as I passed the icicle-coated cliffs.
Upon reaching the bottom of the hill, I stopped and straightened my back.
Then, I lifted the lid of the bin, threw the garbage bag inside, closed the bin and walked away.
