Two more days until Day 100! Where have all the days gone?
Another opening line prompt for you today, again something sourced in my own work. One of the UNSETC Files books ends with a phone call–and sparks a whole new story in and of itself.
See what you can do with this opening line.

Prompt for April 7, 2014 – Day 97
Another Monday. Five days until we hit the glorious thing that is the weekend.
I actually had a fairly productive weekend–I finished the handwritten edits on The Measure of Dreams and got struck in the side of the head for a short story in the UNSETIC universe. Hopefully, folks will like both when I unleash them on the world.
In the meantime, I’ll keep everyone busy with a prompt.
Prompt Type: Quotation
Prompt: Write a scene inspired by the following quote. It could be set in the time period when the quote was spoken, could involve the quote itself, or could simply be inspired by the theme of the quote.
“There is no real ending. It’s just the place where you stop the story.”
— Frank Herbert
