Describing emotions does not always need to be direct (She was angry!), and instead descriptions can be underlying and subtle (Her fists, and teeth, clenched as she...).
I want you to draft short paragraphs (in either first or third person) that center around a character. The paragraphs can be extended descriptions, or action-filled narratives.
The main objective is that each paragraph should show or evoke a single emotion.
[For example: for "angry", you could narrate your character throwing a tantrum - hitting things and throwing objects - or you could describe your character's facial expressions and body language as tense or tight etc.]
Using the elements we discussed, try to write two separate paragraphs, each conveying a main emotion.
