The Backward Tale

Pen a microfiction piece starting with the end of the story, then working backwards to the beginning.

This writing exercise challenges your creativity and storytelling ability, as you need to unravel your tale in reverse. Make sure the story is compelling and makes sense even when the timeline is reversed. It prompts you to think critically about how stories are structured, the causality in narratives, and how to create suspense when readers know the outcome.
