As I write this, I am up well past midnight, alone in my living room while the rest of my household sleeps. Yep, I’m a night owl. This week I’ve collected three (very) different night owls for you. What will your character get accomplished/caught with/away with in the wee hours of the morning?

Life in a city apartment is a strange thing. Tens, hundreds (maybe more!) of people living stacked on top of and next to one another, sharing walls and ceilings and floors. One gets used to hearing conversations that are not your own on warm summer nights, to tolerating the sound of footsteps and furniture above your head, to looking out your window and directly into someone else’s.

This week let’s imagine a city apartment. Will this be a thrilling case á la Rear Window? Or perhaps a tale of unrequited love? In any case, here are three apartments to get your stories rolling.
