Fortune Cookies
Write a scene inspired by a fortune from a fortune cookie.
I just ate three fortune cookies, which gave me the following fortunes. Interpret them how you will:
"Do you want to be a power in the world? Then be yourself."
"Call an old friend today."
"A close friend reveals a hidden talent."
Write a scene or story inspired by one of the fortunes.
Post your response (500 words or fewer) in the comments below.
