#LitHodgepodge 8 (late but I wanted to do this and forgot lol) Raquel: πŸͺ¦ how I die 🧠 forget things at will βŒ› future πŸ’” never show them Nina: πŸͺ¦ when I die 🧠 forget things βŒ› future πŸ’” never hide them

#LitHodgepodge 8 Thinking from the perspective of one (or more) of your characters, choose one (or more!) of these β€œwould you rather” questions and provide an answer. Feel free to explain your character’s response. #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WriteSky

An October Prompt Game of Miscellaneous Proportions

THURSDAY THRIFTED THERAPY

[Graphic of an old-timey bearded man sitting and leaning his arm against a barrel with a tiny frog crawling up its side]

Prompt:
8 | Answer one (or more) of these β€œwould you rather” questions as your character:
πŸͺ¦ Would you rather know when or how you’re going to die?
🧠 Would you rather have a perfect memory or be able to forget anything you wanted at will?
⏳ Would you rather time travel to the past or future?
πŸ’” Would you rather never be able to show emotions or never be able to hide them?

[Graphic of talking crow]
β€œWould you rather” is a classic icebreaker which I doubt requires explanation. Surely you’ve been asked at some point whether you would rather fight 100 duck-sized elephants or one elephant-sized duck? If you chose the latter, you are clearly unacquainted with very many ducks.

Join tomorrow for Friday Flights of Fancy!

Another friend has a book release today! This is a very different vibe than the one I shared last week. The Colors that Haunt Us is a gothic sapphic horror about an artist trying to keep her life from falling apart. Unfortunately, her residency is haunted. buff.ly/kMvfa3Y πŸ§‘πŸ¦„πŸ“šπŸ’™ πŸ“šοΈ 🩸
