The writer will, first, create an original imaginary friend, inspired by Ted from Tony DiTerlizzi's wonderful picture book. The writer will then think of an ordinary activity done on a daily basis, like feeding the family dog. The writer will write about doing the ordinary activity, but he/she will pretend that the activity is being done with the imaginary friend that has been created.
