Writing Prompt- Time Traveling.

Here's something fun you can do with your characters.

In a not-so-distant-future....a long, long time ago...
Have your character time-travel! No matter what time they're already set in, have them travel either in the future or in the past. Describe how they would react and to what. Also describe the time period they're in. And have fun! These are great ways to learn more about our characters and explore new things ourselves. (Sci-fi for example or historical fiction).

Sincerely,
Sareh

Writing Prompt- Survival Skills

Your character is lost in the woods running from an assassin. Your character also knows that there is wild and dangerous animals about. It has been dry recently in the area and there is dark clouds on the horizon. There could be a potential wild fire started by lightning.

Write a short story about how your character would survive in the woods, escape/defeat/out smart the assassin, and get home. Or the opposite. How your character doesn't accomplish any of these goals or only a few of them. Be creative and feel free to add more to this scene(s).

Think about why your character is in this situation, what means and knowledge your character has to survive, and describe this scene(s) in as much detail as possible using all of your senses.

Post what happens in the comments, I'd love to know!
