This week's Story Starter is a small beginning to a story. Write a story or poem inspired by the paragraphs below. You can use the "beginning" anywhere in your story; it doesn't just have to start your story. Or you can just use it to inspire a completely different story having nothing to do with the sentences below.<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>The four of them surrounded him. Their fists were clenched and raised, and Cameron could feel their anger at him. He'd wanted, just once, to be part of the popular crowd. He's mistaken their teasing for friendship, and his words hadn't been chosen as carefully as they should have been. How was he supposed to know that they'd be offended when he called them brutes? He thought they liked being known for their strength and size. But when they heard him use the word "brutes," they heard "big and dumb."</i> </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>He should have known better than to think that he could tease back and make it work for him. He'd always been awkward. He always said the wrong thing. And now, he was about to be crushed by four angry brutes.</i> <i>He couldn't see any way out, but there had to be some way to escape the pain that was coming his way.</i></blockquote>

Today marks the first Story Starter post. Story Starters will be posted on Friday every week and will either contain photos or a first sentence, or even a first paragraph, to help inspire new stories. The point of the Story Starters is to get you writing. If you haven't written anything all week, use the story starters to make sure you write something every week. The best way to become a proficient story-teller is to write as many stories as you are able to write. The more you write, the better your writing will become.<br />
<br />
With a photo or drawing, you are to look at the picture and see what ideas it inspires in you; then write your story. The same goes for the Story Starters that give you a sentence or a paragraph to start you off. With a paragraph, you are to use it to start your story, but with a sentence, you are to use it either to start your story or to add it in anywhere in the story.<br />
<br />
This week's Story Starter is a sentence:<br />
<br />
<i>While everyone else was busy arguing about the accident, Shane's gaze was riveted on the dark bulge that slithered in and out of view under the injured victim's skin.</i><br />
