Exercise #338: Self Knowledge
Posted 10/16/09

Today’s exercise comes from Chas.

Show us the most unusual description - of you - which you’ve heard from someone else or given to yourself.

You may, if you wish, show a character tackling this exercise instead.

Critiquers, with an exercise like this one, you might choose to answer these questions rather than using a different technique for critiquing the piece:
     * Can you relate to the piece? How and why?
     * What is the message, if there is one? Is it presented in a way any reader can understand
even if he/she hasn’t had a similar experience?
     * Did the writer’s experience come through to the reader?
