WRITING OBSTACLE

Think of the traits of the person you dislike...then place them in a short story which paints these traits as positives.

Take a real life villian and consider their good sides, while keeping all their traits. How might they be used for positive things? (Please do not name names; this is an exercise in thinking, not incriminating!)

A Good Use

Lying can only get you so far

It can get you a broken car


Lying can also get you to hide your real feelings

While not beneficial, they are temporary humans


Don’t actually do that though

It’ll make you worse, and only make a bad show


Liars know how to manipulate the vulnerable

And make them extremely uncomfortable


(I really don’t know how I was supposed to make this work, im sorry.)
