This was an activity posted on TSR, interim between YWS down and back up.
Simply, haven't you all read a book, short story, interview and found the writer managed - in one sentence - to give a vivid impression of a character? In one sentence - there it is.
For example: "She lifted up her hand and from the ring that she wore there issued a great light that illumined her alone and left all else dark." --JRR Tolkien, of Galadriel
Or, to start out, something I wrote --"Stiffened, the captain’s pensivity became conscious, a sudden weary, startled shadow hanging over his features; he watched the horizon, back to the fading calls, threading shanties."
Rule is, you write one/post one; and if you like, comment on the one before.
