Day 12 of 14 Writing Challenge ✍️
Your setting can whisper the emotional truth of your story.
Why this matters:
Places can carry energy, which can mirror grief, hope, or transformation.
When used intentionally, setting becomes a silent character.
Think of those sad scenes in a movie and many times the weather turns dark and sometimes rain pours down to add to the sadness in the scene. The same is for a scene in a book. 📕
Example:
The house still smelled like him to me. Coffee, cedar, and endings.
Prompt:
Describe a place that mirrors loneliness or healing without using those words.
Describe the place with emotions.
Reflect:
What emotions live inside your setting?
Now, you can share your answer to the prompt and if you'd like, the reflection as well.
