Write about being captured by a tribe that lives deep within an unfamiliar jungle. Does anyone talk to your character? Is there an escape plan? Or would this person rather stay here as a captive than as someone with no where else to go? Maybe this person is even treated better as their prisoner than when he or she had freedom?

“It didn’t occur to me that my books would be widely read at all, and that enabled me to write anything I wanted to. And even once I realized that they were being read, I still wrote as if I were writing in secret. That’s how one has to write anyway—in secret.”
I dare you to write about an aftermath
Be creative! An empty room after a fight. an empty spot at a dinner table after a death. A wild celebration after a battle… or the ear-jerking mourning of the same. Does the narrator know the whole story or do they simply see the aftermath and guess the rest? Be clear or vague as you want.
Think outside the box!
Don’t forget to tag I dare you to write if you’re brave enough to post.
