A Blow, A Kiss

As a group write your own digital story: You must reinvent or reinterpret the original short story we are studying ‘A Blow, A Kiss’ by Tim Winton. You are required to write your own unique version of the story in one of the following ways:
1. Re-write the story changing the main characters to ‘Mother and Daughter’ (note that the story events, plot and conclusion can change if your wish – you have artistic license to change the story as you see fit).
2. Re-write the story based on another point of view. For example you may choose to write the story based on Albie’s fathers perspective. What would he be thinking/ feeling /doing and why? You could incorporate his inner thoughts. Also consider how he would interpret and experience the events and describe them; and how his story and experience of the event may be different than that of his young son?
3. Re-write the ending or the beginning of the story. Or choose to write a prequel or sequel. Be inventive and add a new twist or dimension to the original.
