Someone told me...

(All credit for this writing exercise goes to Barrie Davenport from www.liveboldandbloom.com)

For this swap you will recount a story told by to you by someone else. It can be something your parents told you, or a sibling, or a friend, or a stranger. It can be something you were told many years ago or something that just happened. It can be something that really happened or something they made up.

Please try to flesh out the story and remember all the details. If your story is a bit short, you can write out two or more!
