Every character hides something—and the best stories reveal it.
The Character Interview—drawn from Episode S1AEP3: The Hidden Self Behind Every Creative Story—is designed to help you uncover the “mirror moment,” when your character finally speaks their deepest truth.
This Take-Home Spark invites you to write in first person, stream-of-consciousness style, as if you are your character. What slips out when they let their guard down? What truths do they rarely say out loud?
It’s a raw, surprising exercise that can illuminate the hidden self behind any creative work.
📌 This Week’s Take-Home SparkThis bonus episode is a focused replay of the Take-Home Spark from our main episode, The Character Interview.
Use it as a quick guide anytime you want to crack open your character’s inner world—or revisit the exercise with fresh eyes.

This Spark is about listening closely to the voices that often stay hidden.
When I use the Character Interview myself, I’m often surprised by what spills out—lines, contradictions, or emotions that surprise me in the best way. That’s the point. Those raw, unscripted truths can become the heartbeat of your story.
If you let your characters ramble, they’ll eventually tell you what matters most. And that’s where the creative gold lives.
Thanks for exploring this Spark with me.
