Optional writing prompt for inspiration: (adapted from a prompt at: https://www.pw.org/writing-prompts-exercises)

“My feckless Googling had reaped a monstrous reality that I knew was going to haunt me for the rest of my life,” Douglas Preston writes in Wired about a nostalgia-induced online search for his childhood best friend that leads him into some unexpectedly dark territory. Write about inadvertently uncovering something (good or bad) you weren’t meant to know—perhaps you overheard a conversation about yourself or someone close to you, followed an Internet search that spiraled to an unintentional conclusion, or submitted an online DNA kit without considering the consequences. Did you confront this new truth or carry on as if you had never learned it?
