GSWC- Day 4

Hey Everyone!

So the challenge for Day 4 for the Get Started Write Challenge is to sketch out a short story idea. So I'm just going to sketch out whatever idea comes to mind. He didn't say anything about really elaborating on it and trying to turn it into a story, but it's supposed to be good practice and help us to I guess flesh things out on paper and get the creative juices flowing.

So here is my sketch idea:

Short story about a girl who is on vacation in Florida for spring break with a group of friends. They hit up all of the parties and are having a blast playing games on the beach and being free of adult supervision. "It's always fun and games until somebody gets hurt."  Two days before they have to return home, one of her best friend's goes missing. Can she and the rest of the group, along with the police, track her down before something fatal happens? Or will this be the last party any of them attend?

So yeah, that was the idea that just popped into my head, and I think it's a rather good one. I will probably end up running with it and writing a short story about it. I'm actually pretty surprised that that idea just came into my head. I didn't really think about it much. I wonder how much more creative ideas are floating around in there, and will I ever be able to get them down on paper?
