Marci Calabretta Cancio-Bello

THE EPISTOLARY EXERCISE

 

Write a story entirely in the form of a letter to an individual addressing a specific conflict between you both. The addressee can be your imagined reader, a character, creature, object, place, or abstraction personified. Example: “To the rabbit who ate my late mother’s last collard greens…” What resolution or challenge might conclude your letter?
