Weekly Prompt 2: Voice Swap
Choose up to three perspectives (by which I mean people, not POV) you don't ordinarily write from (ie a baby or a very old person, someone super confident or insecure, or something more specific like a profession - the important bit is that they see the world differently than you do).
Now write about a routine, mundane task from their perspective - going to work, cooking dinner, waiting in line. Then - only at the end - tell us what type of person (or people, if you did multiple) you chose.
This could also be a different emotion or even genre - ie the same scene shown in a happy/angry/horror/action/romantic light.
Optional constraints, if structure helps you or you want additional challenge:
- Set a timer for minimum or maximum time
- Set a page or wordcount target (again, minimum or maximum depending on what you wanna practice)
- Write in an unfamiliar POV (i.e. 2nd person if you wanna get wacky)
Post your work in Daily Write with Weekly Prompt 2 in the post title so I can find them! Unpolished is alright, preferred even.
