Exercise #621: Self Knowledge Posted 5/15/15
When and why do you ignore people?
We all do it, all the time. Mankind is, I believe, the only animal which regularly ignores others of its own kind. Noisy kids in restaurants, other people in line at the store, that guy on the street that looks dangerous . . . your sister-in-law. Think about when you ignore people and show us a SUB that explains when and why you do it.
As always, you may 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 this? If so, how?
Word limit: 1200 Please use the subject line: SUB: Exercise #621/yourname
I consider this a self-knowledge exercise because thinking about how you regard other people can teach you a lot about yourself.
