Pets

For five minutes, write about a pet your character had or has. How does s/he feel about this creature? Has it played an important role in your character's life?

  1. Terry, I must have been subconsciously thinking of you when I came up with this one!

  2. This is a great prompt, too many times I read novels where no one has a pet and it seems unrealistic.

  3. I love this! I have always checked out your other blog. Never knew about this one for some reason. Thanks! I think this will be very fun and useful!

  4. Charmaine, that's a good point. You don't see that many pets in fiction, and when you do see them, they often meet terrible ends! *shudder*

    Tina, I'm so glad you found this little blog. I hope it's helpful. Happy writing!

  5. I've just realized something. I've never written a story where the mc has a pet. Oh, wait! That's not entirely true. I have an outline for one with a cat. But it's more like the sister's pet cat. And it dies. (I do love cats, though.)
