Portrait of an Alter-Ego

Create a character who is your shadow self and write about his/her adventures.

Juxtapose this alter-ego with your real self, the characteristics they possess that you don’t, and the daring tasks they undertake that you may hesitate to attempt. This exercise allows introspection, understanding personal strengths and weaknesses, and offers a creative escape to imagine living as someone else entirely.
