WRITING OBSTACLE

Your character is obsessed with fire. The heat, the light, and the beauty of a flickering flame.

Utilise as many senses as you can when getting into the mindset of this character. Consider how their obsession manifests itself, and how it affects them.

Arson

What you call arson I call art

The way the flames dance

Casting shadows with their light

Feeling the warmth on my skin

Unable to get closer to the blaze

The thrill of choking on smoke

And not getting caught by the law

Till it’s all black and ashen

Not lasting the passing time

But that only adds to its beauty

The beauty of flickering fire
