Characterization

My betta fish, Elvis Andrus, is quite perky in the morning. He stares at me when I turn the light on in the morning, swimming to the top of the bowl to get his five pellets of food. I wonder what he thinks when we leave for the day. It's interesting to put ourselves on the other side. We tend to do this with humans - or at least we think we do - but it's not often we try to see ourselves through other animals' eyes, or even objects' eyes.

The exercise: View your daily activities through an inanimate object or an animal, creating a character and world for that object.

Check back later to see how today went.
