Write a prequel about Mary Tyrone in Long Day’s Journey Into Night. Explain why the character was predisposed to act as she does: • What experiences did she have? • What events shaped her? • Does she have a job or an occupation? • Where does she live? • What complications might have occurred in her life? What kind of person is she? • Who are her friends and family? Story should have an inciting event that starts some kind of conflict, and that conflict should build to a turning point or climax. Story should have a resolution, although it may not be a happy one. Be creative – story must be consistent with the author’s original.
