Write Drunk, Revise Sober

Write about where you or your character were during a historically significant moment, and what you were doing. For example, many people like to discuss where they were when John F. Kennedy was assassinated, or when the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, or when the first astronaut walked on the moon. Focus on your or your character's location and actions more than the important event that occurred simultaneously--we probably know what happened from the news, so no need to rehash the details like a history teacher. Just give enough information so that the reader knows what you're referencing.
