Subject:      EXERCISE: From Here To There...

        He took a wake-up call that day that changed his life.

Since the world seems to like quick and quirky problems, here we go!
Just take that sentence, ponder on who he is, where and what might be
his "wake-up" call, stir well with your creative buds and other
muserly spices, and let the fingers do the writing on the silver
screen (papyrus, what have you).

[is there a wrong way to do this?  not really.  can I write a poem or
essay or frictive phantasy or a joke or a...?  yes, that's fine.  can
I...? YES, YOU CAN!]

WRITE!
