Animal

Animals are great tools for us to borrow characteristics from. Who hasn't heard of a salesman as slippery as an eel, or sneak-thief with cat-like grace.

Prepare

Think of an animal. Write its name in the middle of a sheet of paper. Create a spider graph (pardon the pun), by writing positive and negative descriptive words around the animal. eg:

Horse: (+) loyal, hard-working, noble (-) plodding, docile, mindless

Before any horse lovers find offense, the object here is to try to look at all aspects of the animals nature.

Prepare several animals.

Write

Chose two of your animals and write a flash fiction using their attributes in developing the characters. eg:

CSI: Policeman - Horse
Criminal - Spider

The options are many and varied.
