Question

I need to compose an original short story about a quest or dream that a young person sets out to fulfill and the narrator has to be older and wiser than he or she was at the time of the quest. Any ideas?

Answer 1

What might a young person dream of or "go for"? How might an older person with more life experience (or the older version of the young dreamer) either criticize or admire (or both) the young person's dreams and quest(s)? Use your own "impossible dreams" or those of people you know to build upon. And, remember, some "impossible" dreams can be achieved! "Impossible things are happening every day."
