I'm going to close the comments for a story topic a little earlier than usual because I love the topic that's been suggested already. An anonymous reader has suggested I write a story about a slave girl in early 19th century Louisiana told from the perspective of a white family member who is neutral about the issue of slavery.
I like this topic for several reasons the first of which being that I love history and have always wanted to write historical fiction. Secondly, this is a topic/era that I do not know a lot about so I'll have to research it and I need to get in the habit of researching for stories.
Thirdly, my dad's side of the family is native to Louisiana and so it's a place I've visited many times and one that's important to me.
So I'm going to work on this story topic this week. Check back on Saturday and hopefully I'll have it done by then!
