Summer Workshop Prompt #2
Feel The Heat
With this prompt, we're bringing you the opportunity to dig deep (or maybe not so deep, depending on your character...) and find something that really makes your character tick.
Your Task
Write a piece involving anger, irritation, frustration...all those hot emotions that arise when you throw a little spice into the mix. This prompt will come more naturally to some characters than others, so if you want an extra challenge, try to write this prompt with a character who doesn't usually lose their head. Everyone's got a boiling point, so what is that for your character? Pick a situation and then focus on your character's thoughts and emotions, as well as the way they physically react to the situation. This is a great opportunity to put your character in a difficult scenario (because who doesn't like to make their characters uncomfortable?!) and see how they handle it.
As always with our workshops, there are no rules on word counts, tenses, person, general format etc., as long as you adhere to our site rules and site rating!
How do I start?
three simple steps
1. Start a new thread in the Summer Workshop forum. It should be called
Prompt 2: Title of Your Piece2. Write your piece, following the prompt above.
3. Review the pieces of others (see
How To Workshop).
