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 “would you rather” questions as your character:
🪦 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?
💔 Would you rather never be able to show emotions or never be able to hide them?
[Graphic of talking crow]
“Would 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.

Tropes and the archetypes they're built around help us understand reader expectations. If you know what’s expected, you can lean into that familiarity, or subvert it.
Identify a character archetype in your WIP. Who are they? How do you use them?

Prompt:
6 | Tell us about an archetypal character in your WIP. Who are they, and what is their role in the story? How do you utilize, and possibly subvert, expected patterns? Feel free to share a snip.
[Graphic of a talking crow]
Archetypes are like character blueprints that represent something universal about the human experience. Examples include the rebellious hero, the benevolent ruler, the mentor, the wanderer, the reluctant warrior, the trickster, and the reclusive genius.

A person's vision of happiness tells us a lot about them. Do they imagine adventure, security, peace? Or is it in the details—a cozy hearth, trophy on the mantle, gaggle of grandbabies?
