----------------------------
In 400 words or less, write a piece that centers on a core belief – a
familial, cultural, or religious tenet that was part of a character’s
upbringing.
----------------------------
There are diverse ways to respond to this prompt. You might describe
a key incident in your personal history, some situation that proved
the worth of an ingrained belief or, alternately, made you reconsider
its merit. Another choice, invent a scene in which a character
expresses an ingrained belief and then observes how that belief
impacts others.
