It's another day closer to our submission deadline It's another day closer to our submission deadline (September 20th!!!!), so we have another prompt for you! Don't forget to send your literary, lifestyle, and photo submissions to infusion.submissions@gmail.com!!!! . "Imagine something you see almost every day in your placement town: maybe it's a mountain or a river, maybe it's the view from the top of your apartment, maybe it's an old fruit tree, or maybe it's an abandoned store. Now write about someone completely different from yourself looking at that very same thing (what about a person from hundreds of years ago? a person from hundreds of years in the future? a magician from a fantasy version of your town? or that bus driver you see every week?). What is that person thinking? How do they see that view? What's going on in their life?" . 📸:Allie Easterbrooke . . . #Fulbrightinfusion #Fulbrightkorea #Fulbrightsouthkorea #Fulbright #FulbrightSouthKorea #submissions #writingprompts
