This New York Times article about the discovery of a plantation owner’s journal used by William Faulkner for some of the material in his novels inspired today’s challenge.
Create a character based on information in a found source. This could be the old journal of a relative, your own old journal (pick someone you wrote about that you didn’t know well or don’t remember), even a fairy tale or a fable. Get creative!
As always, I’d love to see the results, if you feel like sharing.
