Being able to imagine the world from unique perspectives is a key element of creative writing. This prompt encourages you to step into the ‘shoes’ of an inanimate object, in this case, a book. How would a book feel being untouched, watching people and events pass by? What would it long for? What stories would it tell if it could speak? This exercise lets you explore empathy, emotional depth and offers a fresh perspective on ordinary objects.
