Week 3: "Negative Space"

Theme: Negative space:- Describe a setting by what's not there (500-1000 words)

The Three Obstructions:

1. All five senses must be utilised in the description
2. All clichés must be avoided. That is to say, you (the author) must avoid using commonly used turns-of-phrase, imagery etc.
3. The piece cannot be set in the present day (i.e. the 21st Century). It must be set in another era. (suggested by Simon Curtis)
