Layers of the Self: Crafting Your Autobiographical Character

✨ Writing Prompt

Think of a pivotal moment in your life that significantly shaped who you are today. Write a scene from that moment as if you were both the protagonist and the narrator. Explore not only your thoughts and feelings but also the perceptions of those around you. Include dialogue, sensory details, and internal monologue to vividly convey the atmosphere and the emotional weight of the experience. As you write, consider how this moment influenced your values, beliefs, and relationships. After your scene, reflect on how this character—representing the younger you—has evolved into who you are now.
