This TTD clearly appealed to you for fun  but there were some very good paragraphs and the point was that it focused your attention, gave you something very specific around which to create your character.  Some of you over-described the person, there were the usual cliches - if I don`t teach you not to use those before I die......

But I was pleased with the way in a small space you started a story by bringing one person alive.

I don`t believe in endless exercises but the occasional very specific one makes you sharpen your pencils and think carefully.

It was almost a short story in a paragraph assignment - never satisfying to read in my view but these almost all made me want to read on - which is the point, let alone be a fly on the wall of the Dragons' Den when your characters came up the stairs - especially the man with long sleeves hiding the scars on his wrists.

A longer post later about the word 'DRAFTS.' It should hold absolutely no fears at all for you - I have very good news about Drafts.
