week 11: the actress formerly known as marcia mayville

I really enjoyed last week’s stories and the beautiful development of relationships between characters.

This week’s prompt is compiled from a suggested opening line from richardsplanet and my own two cents. I also want to continue giving you the option to develop characters you have already written stories about. So, for this week:

Option 1:

Name: Marcia Mayville
Profession: Actress
Age: recently deceased.
Opening line: “I’d like to dispel a few myths about death. The first being that it is not the end. Not that I am any great expert. I’ve only been dead a week.”

Option 2:

You can revisit any past characters. You can visit the previous character prompts here.

You can submit a story until March 21st, 2010. I will publish all stories at 21:00 CET on that date and publish the character description for next week’s character on March 22nd.

For information about how to take part, refer to the About and Participate pages.
