Exercise #783: Self Knowledge
Posted 11/16/18

Where do you find “extra” money?

One friend I know keeps any change left in the clothes in the laundry and I’ve hidden money away in a “safe” spot where it took me years to find it again. How about you?

Show us a scene where you find extra money, or give us an essay about it.

As always, you can choose to have a character do this exercise instead.

Critiquers, you might try answering these questions for critiquing the piece:
     * Did you catch any spelling errors or other standard proofreading items? If so, note them for the author.
     * Could you relate to this piece? Why or why not?

Word limit: 1200

Why this is a self-knowledge exercise: As we talk about money we hide or money we find, it will bring to light the feelings around it and may lead to figuring out something about ourselves.
