Day 7

It's time to be brutally honest. What have you always wanted to say but never did? Today's your day to let it out. Whatever emotions your holding back, whatever hatred or love you've been neglecting to confess, whatever is on your mind, write it.

Challenge: Express your feelings through a fictional character in a "Dear You" letter. There should be pieces of you and your story, but it should ultimately still be fictional. This can be the best catharsis at times.

Tip: Words are only part of communication in writing. There are italics, bold print, underlining, all capitols, and punctuation. Use these to your advantage. It's the body language of the written word. It should be used sparingly, but it can make all the difference.

Ready. Set. Confess.
