## Step 5 - Task

Task
You are a screenwriter and you have been invited to write the short blurb for your new murder mystery TV series. Work with a partner.
Read about some tips for blurb writing here http://marilynnbyerly.com .
Write down your ideas for the mystery. Complete the table.
You don’t have to write the whole mystery, but it’s a good idea to have lots of details.
Then you can choose the most important ones to write your blurb.

When does it happen (now / 1900s etc.) |
Main characters | 1. 2. 3.
Minor characters | 1. 2. 3.
Where does the mystery take place |
Who is murdered |
How (weapon) |
Investigating detective |
Suspects |
Names | Possible motives
1. |
2. |
3. |

With your partner, decide which information you will include.

- Write your blurb in between 200–250 words.
