WRITING OBSTACLE
Write a short dialogue that reveals much more about the narrator than the person they are talking to.
Often when writing from the narrator’s perspective, the reader’s attention is on what the narrator is seeing and hearing. By inverting this, a great sense of character can be created. What does their conversation reveal to the reader?
Pittsburgh
It rains here all the time,
So when it’s cold it gets slippy and yikes,
You simply wait it out n’at.
You can grab a pop now with some ice.
Don’t be a jagoff,
Cause yinz don’t understand,
The potholes will get you,
Again and again.
It’s louder than anywhere
I’ve ever been.
Our sports fans are always pumped,
We usually win.
A ring for each finger,
And one just for fun,
We are the champions,
This is steeler nation.
