📝 Give this prompt a try, guys. I definitely am. How would you approach this story? I'd love to know!📝
💡This prompt particularly piqued my interest because the details are in what you don't say.
There are a number of ways you can approach this prompt, but I believe it's really in the negative space.
🔧 Tool: Strategic omission
🚫 You can deliberately leave out:
- motivations
- explanations
- emotional reactions that should be there
✨Example technique:
- A character notices something odd.
- They do not question it.
- The narration moves on as if that’s normal.
This creates the sense that either the narrator is lying or reality is compromised.
Unease thrives in silence.
