Exercise #425: Self Knowledge
Posted 6/17/11

Our last Craft exercise asked us to create an ode. This exercise is related: Show us a favorite person in your life. Help us see him or her as someone truly special.

You may, if you wish, show a character tackling this exercise instead.

Critiquers, you might choose to answer these questions for critiquing the piece:

     * Did you catch any spelling errors or other standard proofreading items? If so, note them for the author.
     * Could you relate to the SUB? Why or why not?

Word limit: 750
Please use the subject line:
             SUB: Exercise #425/yourname

Why this is a self-knowledge exercise: Thinking about why we like the people we like - in order to demonstrate what makes them special - will help us recognize those characteristics in ourselves.
