This is an exercise in description. Describe the room you are in (or another familiar location) using only non-visual imagery. What do you smell, hear, taste, touch? Describing what you see is easy; today, I ask you to stretch a bit.
Example: Instead of writing, “My room is painted white and decorated with portraits of my favorite verbhounds,” I might write, “The room smells of last night’s absinthe, and the desk is faintly sticky.”
