Tuesday, March 18th: Emotion

It is Tuesday morning and it is time to get emotional. Don’t worry, no one is asking you cry into your cornflakes. Nope, this is a show don’t tell exercise. This year we just happen to be focusing on emotions. There are so many to use and often they get forgotten. It is a good way to practice showing instead of telling though. Concentrate on all the little things that make up this emotion. Engage all the senses. The only rule is you can not actually use the word labeling the emotion.

Today’s Emotion: Terrified

Isn’t that a delightful one (literarily speaking of course). So many different ways to show someone is terrified. all without using the word terrified. Give it a think and then set pen to paper and see what you come up with. Happy Writing.
