5, 7, 10 writing

L.I to use the 5, 7, 10 method to write a story

Lightning never strikes twice, does it?
That was the question that occurred in their frightened minds as they crouched, huddling together, next to the pile of dusty sacks in the base of the windmill…

It all began when the family of four went on a road trip to explore their countryside and to visit their Grandpa who was really ill. This wasn’t to be an enjoyable trip though, it was forecasted that there was a thunderstorm on the way, the family had known of this but decided to take the risk anyway. Their parents told the kids not to wander off but the massive space to play was too much to resist, they never had much space to play in their apartment.

They eventually gave up telling them to come inside, not long after that lightning struck the house out of nowhere hitting the Grandfather as a result he was severely burned which ended up killing him. They escaped in sorrow with tears running down to their eyes, the father decided to find shelter in the windmill.

In their minds there was only one question, does lightning strike twice? The family waited for the storm to pass as they waited in fear. It was a grueling six hours but thankfully the storm ended.

This week for writing we used the 5, 7, 10 method to write a story, in this method you first get five minutes to write a story, after that you get feedback from another person about your story and lastly you get 10 minutes write and make changes to your story.
