ANIMALS
“Holding this soft, small living creature in my lap this way, though, and seeing how it slept with complete trust in me, I felt a warm rush in my chest. I put my hand on the cat's chest and felt his heart beating. The pulse was faint and fast, but his heart, like mine, was ticking off the time allotted to his small body with all the restless earnestness of my own.” ― Haruki Murakami, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle

Prepare a 5-min true, personal story which explores the idea of “Animal” from all possible angles: the unexpected encounter with a wild boar crashing through your front window; the snake, that slithered into your warm sleeping bag; the rat you caught in your spice drawer munching on your chili seasoning; the live crabs you bought for dinner, but you couldn’t make the kill; bugs that bite or sharks that almost did; the 9 bats that flew through your window looking for a cave to hang in; the napping lion blocking the road in Kenya, and let us not forget our own animal instincts and our wild sides!
Tell us about a memorable encounter or relationship with an animal.
Why not go a step further and send your story to our team for motivating feedback? Story feedback can make a big difference!
If you’ve got a story, we got a stage.
Dare to do THE bEAR!
