A personal list of lenses for narrative design & genre writing
I keep having conversations with writer friends about using lenses to think about fiction (both writing and reading/playing), and I keep promising I'll write down my list somewhere useful. This is as useful a place as I've got!

Body: sculpey, armature wire wrapped with ribbon for volume and security, wool roving for the hair. Clothing: old fabric, a little sewing, mostly hot glue.
