The more you know the person - the easier it is to write AS them or in their voice. So the assignment for today is the following: A monologue from a characters point of view about any topic. Just think of someone you know and think "what is it that would either set them off or make them talk for an extended period of time?"

Use this writing prompt however you wish... possible questions to consider (or ignore): Why did they sign the contract? What did they get for signing it? Where did they sign it? What was their life like before signing it? Did they know it was the devil? As always, enjoy and have fun writing. Cheers!
