Loraine stepped into the Writing Lab of the Language Department, her smile widening as she noted all the heads of the students bent over their projects. A quick check of the board up front showed their assignment:

 

WRITE YOUR OWN GHOST STORY.

 

It was simple, but effective directions and it seemed the students were hard at work. She paused by one and asked, "Do you have to make one up or can you write about one you heard? A true ghost story...?"

 

"Whatever makes you happy!" The student whispered in a slightly irritated voice. "The Professor doesn't care which way you go with it, as long as it's a good story!"

 

Awesome! Loraine thought, settling herself down to try her hand at it...

**Runs off to start writing**

Ghost-story?

 

uh-oh! I shall try my best

Is there a word count limit on it? And when is the assignment due?

No limit... preferably by Halloween, but I love a good ghost story at any time. ;)

 

I'm about 2/3 of the way through mine... I swear I'm trying to keep from going nuts with the word count. It ain't easy. LOL

did anyone write a story? or are they posted somewhere else?
