| Assignment #1: Oct. 1 - What if? Every good story starts with a 'what if'. What if a young boy discovers he's a wizard? What if a girl discovers a world hidden inside her wardrobe? What if there was a cemetery where buried pets came back to life? What if dinosaurs were alive again? In this exercise, imagine your story and your main character(s). Who is(are) the character(s)? What happens to them, and why is it a problem? (If it's not a problem, it's just life, not a story. *Wink*) Spend at least 15 minutes imagining all the possibilities in your story. Make a list of every possible 'what if' you can think of. Nothing is off limits here - let your brain go. What if the hero isn't the hero? What if magic could be assigned and unassigned? What if worlds ran right next to each other? What if your life isn't what you thought it was? What if you don't want to be a world saving hero? What if you're judged for being who you aren't? What if the woman you love dies, but comes back as someone else? What if you find out your child is the hero? What if magic is secret? What if magic is the answer? |
