Prompt for January 21, 2014 – Day 21

It’s Tuesday, one day closer to Friday.

Prompt for today is something new, something to help you with character development.  Hopefully, it’ll be helpful for some (or all)!

Prompt Type: Character History

Prompt:  Take the main character from your current project (if you have multiple projects or multiple mains, pick the one you feel like you know the least about right now) and imagine what they were doing ten years ago.  Write a scene set in that time period and see where it takes you.

With any luck, you may be able to incorporate what you’ve just learned about your character in your current project.
