- a character who reads the labels on food containers aloud (“one tea bag of this fine tea brewed five minutes in a teapot with two cups of boiling water — makes two cups. Sugar brings out the flavor of lemon.”) Extra points if another character interjects interestedly.
- a character who keeps a journal, but instead of writing the date, writes the number of days s/he’s been alive.
- write the novel in first person. The narrator’s a pathological liar. Make this clearer and clearer as the story goes on. There doesn’t have to be a reason for the lying. The narrator doesn’t necessarily know s/he’s lying either, s/he just does it. (If you’d like, you can end the book with the reader killing you.)
