Prompt for a Tuesday: Conversation among our "selves"
It's Tuesday, and I dunno about you, but I am already well into my week, and the "self" that I am on the weekends feels further and further away by the minute.
Here's a prompt for this morning:
Take a few moments and write down all the "selves" you are in your life right now (or maybe create this list for a character you're working with!). (For instance, my list might include: commuter, database flunky, writer, dreamer, coffee addict, etc.)
Let yourself notice which two of your "selves" take most of your time right now, or are otherwise calling your writerly attention, and let them talk with one another for at least 15 mins...

I was avictim at age seven, but was too ashamed to acknowledge it for decades.
