Back in the 70s the singing group the O’Jays recorded their hit song Love Train.


People all over the world
join hands
Start a Love Train, Love Train.


I loved that song. Yeah, I’m old. What of it?!?


Today I want to introduce you to a fun new opportunity to participate in an ongoing story with me on my blog. I call it The Fiction Train.

Here’s the origin of the idea. I love writing openings. I learned early on in order to grab readers you must have a good, catchy opening. Ever since I learned that lesson many years ago, I’ve been writing and perfecting openings. I’ve been writing openings for over 20 years. I have openings up the ying yang. Problem is, to complete a book or even a short story you need a lot more than an opening. Here’s where you come in. I thought we could have some flash fiction fun with some of my openings. On my blog(http://vanlowe.blogspot.com), I have posted the opening of a story; your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to continue the story in 175 words or less. It's FREE to join, there will be PRIZES.

For more deatails and to post your addition to the story, go to E's Blog now.

Peace.
