A Prompt To Distract Yourself
March 2nd 2010 12:39
Your goal for this month might be all about editing, but it's always good to keep the writing juices flowing. To help you keep writing, each week there will be a writing prompt. These are designed to be 500-1, 500 word writing exercises. They don't have to be full stories, as long as they sort of make sense.
This week, take a character from a different project than the one you're currently editing, someone who you are somewhat familiar with but who isn't quite a close friend yet. You will be writing from their point of view.
Your goal is to write 500-1, 000 words about this character traveling through an unfamiliar forest. Have them describe the forest as best they can, trying to figure out types of trees, types of flowers, any animals that they find.
I'd love to read your responses to these prompts. If you think one of them is particularly great, email it to me with Prompt Response in the subject line at diannalgunn@gmail.com.
