Exercise #408: Self Knowledge
Posted 2/18/11
Today's exercise comes from Sue Levy.
What is your favorite time-waster?
Show us your time-waster; what it is, how it works or how it’s done, why you like it. The best SUBs will make us want to try it!
For anyone whose favorite time-waster is “doing nothing,” please think about your answer a bit more and show us what “nothing” means to you. I seriously doubt you sit in a chair and stare at a blank wall! (But if you do, hey, show us why you like it. Maybe I’m missing out on something fun.)
You may, if you wish, show a character tackling this exercise instead.
Critiquers, you might choose to answer these questions for critiquing the piece:
* Did you catch any spelling errors or other standard proofreading items? If so, note them for the author.
* Did the SUB make you want to try this yourself? Why or why not?
* Did you see yourself in any of it? Why or why not?
Word limit: 1200
Please use the subject line:
SUB: Exercise #408/yourname
Why this is a self-knowledge exercise: How you like to spend your time says a lot about you. Please keep in mind that liking to do “nothing” is not evil!
