Threshold of Choice

Often the best discoveries occur when a writer arrives on a threshold.  At this place the disorder of experience, emotion or memory meets the ordering power of words.

Recall a memorable experience just before and after it happened. The threshold forced a choice and took you to another place.

Discover the nature of your own personal threshold.  Place yourself there and write from that dynamic location.

Write the memory of a choice made "just in time."  Bring the reader into your experience at the threshold moment. How did the choice move you into a better outcome? Write again about the other choice you could have made. Where might that decision have taken you?
