How can I fill two minutes when I describe a person?
Work through the four blocks in order and give each one a rough share of the turn: about twenty seconds for who the person is, about forty for how you know them, about forty for what they do and about twenty for why they matter. If a block finishes early, add a detail you can date or picture instead of repeating the same sentence in different words, and finish by returning to the last point on the card.
