I was reading through writing prompts earlier, and I came across this one. Though I chose to write about my quotes choices first, I find myself coming back to this idea and I'd love to give it a shot, because I think the logic behind it is great. The prompt is to explain who you are to your audience, using only 200 words or less. The idea is almost one of self-discovery, since you know everything about yourself and will be made to only select certain pieces of yourself to write about. I'd love to try this, and I encourage both my dad and my sister to do this as well. Below is my paragraph.
My name is Madison. I’m 15, and I live in NH. My passions include karate, hiking, and playing with makeup. I’ve been taking karate since 3, and I now hold a second degree black belt in kenpo. I’m often described as open-minded and easygoing, but I’m actually strongly opinionated and logical. I’ve also been described as mature for my age- I attribute this to life experience centered around a childhood trauma endured between the ages of 7 and 11. Aside from being mentally scarred from these events, I’ve also become a bit of an over-achiever with my schoolwork, having passed 10 college-level courses and held almost all straight A’s throughout high-school thus far. These factors, combined with the loss of my mother, have left me with an old soul and a hatred for addictive substances. All of this makes it difficult for me to get along with people of my own age group, so I often befriend older people. One of my best friends is my dad, from whom I’ve learned almost everything I know... including my aforementioned appreciation of logic. I’m an open book- you just have to take time to read my pages. Word Count: 195 If any of our readers also want to partake in this prompt, please feel free to leave a comment on this post telling me who you are in 200 words or less. - Maddie
