Writing Games: Sixty Years Later

    It's so awesome having a character you like so much that you want to write about them constantly. What writer hasn't had a favorite? The kind of character you love to daydream about, write short stories about, draw numerous sketches of . . . The type where you want to write about their childhood, or about their pre-adventure life. Those kind of scenes can be a fun exercise.
    How about reversing it?
    It could be an interesting writing challenge to write a scene where a character (the main protagonist, a sidekick character, the antagonist, a contagonist) is a lot older. Like maybe sixty years older than they are in the story. What would they be doing? How would the world around them have changed? How much would they have changed? What would their relationships with the other characters in the story be like so many years after the adventure?
    What do you think?
