A man's true secrets are more secret to himself than they are to others.--Paul Valery
A writer should have this little voice inside of you saying, Tell the truth. Reveal a few secrets here.--Quentin Tarantino
We dance around a ring and suppose, while the secret sits in the middle and knows--Robert Frost
PostSecret is an ongoing community art project where people mail their secrets anonymously on one side of a homemade postcard (there are also several PostSecret books which are compilations of hundreds of mail-in submissions. Great source of ideas for future stories).
Exercise: Design and write your own PostSecret postcard.
Take it a step further (optional):
Choose a postcard from one of the books, or from the website as a basis for a character sketch or beginning of a short story.
Later
Keeping this one private in the interest of free self-expression!
