Theme Thursdays [Location] – 04Aug11

Theme Thursdays is a fun weekly event that will be open from one thursday to the next. Anyone can participate in it. The rules are simple:

• A theme will be posted each week (on Thursday’s)
• Select a conversation/snippet/sentence from the current book you are reading
• Mention the author and the title of the book along with your post
• It is important that the theme is conveyed in the sentence (you don’t necessarily need to have the word)
  Ex: If the theme is KISS; your sentence can have “They kissed so gently” or “Their lips touched each other” or “The smooch was so passionate”

This will give us a wonderful opportunity to explore and understand different writing styles and descriptive approaches adopted by authors.

This week’s theme is

LOCATION (reference to the location where the story is happening)

Honestly I thought this would be an easy one, but I struggled with finding an apt snippet. Finally after a lot of hanging around I found this. If you have just as much trouble as I did, just find any location – a doctor’s office, a park, a room, anything would work fine.

My THURSDAY THEME for LOCATION is here.

She inhaled deeply and knocked on the door of the large, two-story, wood-frame house. Nestled among other old Tarpon Springs, Florida, mansions, the Papadopoulos family home overlooked the Anclote River’s Spring Bayou.
