Be an imaginary visual stalker!
Imagine you are sitting in a restaurant, bar, airport, or coffee shop for a while. Describe one or two people who are sitting or walking around. Get very descriptive in the writing, explaining what they are wearing, how they wear their hair, what their features look like, etc...the sky is the limit!Now, go a bit beyond. If someone’s wearing headphones, what is are they listening to? Are they learning Spanish on tape, listening to romantic classical music, or maybe listening to a lecture from MIT? What are they thinking about, and where are they going? This is the type of exercise that can quickly morph into a story!
