Accidents happen

They say, "Accidents cause History."

Begin with a great event (either positive or disaster, real or imagined) and tell the story of the ordinary, maybe even bumbling accident that began a series of events that resulted in the big event. Maybe it's a cat that knocked the muffins from the table that began a war between neighboring planets. Or a dropped jar of pickles that ended in the collapse of the kingdom's economy. Or a phone dropped in a puddle that resulted in two celebrities getting married?

You can write it as a story or as a sort of If You Give a Mouse a Cookie series of events. (You can view the pages at the Amazon link.)
