Free-writing 1 for ENG 1010

This is my first of many free-writing posts.  In class, we are given an opening statement and from that, we write freely for a given amount of time.  We are asked to write as quickly as possible.  Nothing is restricted and free thought/writing is encouraged.

The doorbell rang, the dog barked and Frank struggled to restrain the dog from barging out the door.  Luckily the screen was shut, but nevertheless the mailman was petrified and white as a sheet.

"Sorry about that." said Frank, but the mailman didn't budge.  The dog continued to pull against Frank's restraint and bark as though the mailman had just murdered its mother.  Frank did his best to subdue the dog and at the same time, tried to communicate to the mailman to just leave the box at the door.  Still no movement from the wide eyed and terrified mailman.
