Picture Day!
Friday, February 22nd, 2008Today I have decided to do something a little different. It’s been a long time since I have put up visual prompts, which surprises me a bit actually given how much I like pictures.
As you know, this week we have been talking about writing, what it means to you, how you write, why you write… Today I will be putting up some pictures. Each of the pictures is going to be of a person. Each picture will have a caption beside it that will prompt you to write something about the person in the picture.
You can choose to do one of them, some of them, or all of them. You may get a character for a story out of what you write or you may find this exercise a bit pointless. No matter what you try, try to have fun and think outside the bubble of your life.
Who knows what crazy things you might think of…
This guy (name him whatever you like) has left work early so he can find a more ‘creative’ space to work in.
See, he’s facing a deadline. A big deadline. The kind of deadline that might mean he either gets promoted or he starts looking for a new job.
Give this guy a name, tell me what kind of ‘creative’ space he’s chosen, what project he’s writing, and what happens…
This is [pick a name]. She has a writing piece in progress that she just can’t quite seem to finish for some reason.
She’s taken some time out time to meditate and relax so she can figure out where to go in her work in progress.
What is her work in progress? Why is she finding it hard to finish? Will the meditation help? Does she finish it?
