Character Idea #6
Write from the perspective of a non-human character who also perceives the world far differently than a human can. (For example, did you know plants have photoreceptors in their leaves which control cycles such as flowering, meaning they can “see” the sun? Or that when they are injured, they release chemical “screams,” jumpstarting their neighbors’ immune systems? Or if plants are too intimidating, how about the mantis shrimp, whose punch can boil water and whose eyes can see in a wider light spectrum?) Avoid the temptation to anthropomorphize (i.e. making them understand human speech and motives, or creating tribal cultures and religions).

It is not leaves falling from the trees, but something else...


Lovely minimalist desert landscape in No Man’s Sky.
I actually use dragon shouts in my dreams a lot. Not sure if I actually say them out loud or not though...Because why snore when you can speak dragon?

Confession: One day, my mom told me I had been yelling in my sleep. I had a Dragonborn dream - I was using shouts.
