Try this as a creative writing prompt:
Choose a well-known hero or heroine – doesn’t matter what sphere they inhabit. They could be literary, cinematic, artistic, philosophical, historical; fact or fiction, living or dead. Maybe they’re a favourite fictional character, or a hated politician. They might be the same sex as you; they might not.
List their attributes – these traits can be positive or negative.
Now think yourself into the character and build a story, from the point of view of this real or imaginary person. Mould this 2-dimensional cut out into a real person. What motivates them? What do they like? What do they fear?
