Writing in 5th Person

      Recently, while sitting at my computer, I felt a light tap on my shoulder. Turning to see what is was, as I had thought myself quite alone, I saw absolutely nothing. That's when I heard the voice.
      "hello kyle"
      I sat frozen. If you've never heard a disembodied voice in person before, it can be a startling event.
      "kyle"
      "Hello?" I ventured, not knowing what else to say.
      "hi"
      "Who are you?"
      "i am not a who"
      "Okay, then what are you?"
      "i am your creativity"
      "My creativity?"
      "yes i am the spirit sent to imbue you with creative thought"
      "Are you sure I haven't just gone insane?"
      "quite"
      "So it's your job to help me come up with things to write about, right?"
      "not only that but i will also aid you throughout the entire creative process"
      "No offense, but you seem kinda shit. I mean, you're supposed to help me write, but you don't even use capitalization or punctuation."
      "how can you tell"
      It was then that the fourth wall collapsed.

  6. This was an interesting perspective - to be honest I don't think I have enough imagination to come up witch such things. I'd love to have a chat with my creativity one day; I do need that.
