AURORA’S RESPONSE:
I’ve always enjoyed reading work that feels genuine or even ‘too personal’ - like peering into a diary or someone’s shitty tumblr from 2010. Recalling memories and rekindling the emotions that accompanied them in order to retell a story, is part of my process. I try to write from an emotion and most of the time it’s just general mania. I wrote these prompts to crawl back into my own memories. They also just entertain me.
-
God wants to know why you deserve to be in heaven - you only get 180 characters.
- You’re applying for a job at Pizza Hut.
- You have been given a small loan of 50 million dollars to open an amusement park. How did you pitch the park?
- You married your high school sweet heart and realized you made a mistake.
- You just found out you ate your twin in the womb. What do you think they would’ve been like if they were here today?
