Final Exam - Geva 10 mInute play (generating ideas)

After completing your mid term exam in fiction, please complete the following brainstorming:

1. List common problems that a person can face in their daily life.
2. Add to this list a few uncommon problems that a person in certain circumstances might have.
3. Add at least one weird or strange conflict or problem that a character in extreme situations might have.

Once you have a list, compare yours with a neighbors. Consider what conflicts sound most exciting. Circle at least 3 of these.
