Underneath the Prairie Sky

Write a letter from the perspective of a homesteader on the prairie to their family back home.

This prompt helps you delve into the experience of a homesteader on the prairie, distanced from familiar settings. The challenge here lies in communicating the essence of their new life, experiences, and emotions without the recipient witnessing any of it. Think about the homesickness, the culture shock, and the surprising aspects of frontier living that would be shared.
