Anthology Writing Prompt

Monday, April 30th, 2012

Some anthologies are by invite only. I read one recently which had a great variety of stories. And it gave me the idea for today’s writing prompt.

Thinking back to an anthology you like, write a short story or poem which would fit with it.

Good luck,
Amber

Use frustration as the motivating factor for your protagonist. Feel free to use this emotion in a poem, short story or character exercise.

Good luck!

April is National Poetry Month

Monday, April 2nd, 2012

April is National Poetry Month. Poetry is not really my thing, but I do run across a poem now and then I can appreciate. One type I like is the haiku. It’s been a few years since we’ve brought up haiku.

I challenge you to write one today. I did!

Spring brings a brightly
colored songbird who likes to
eat earthworms and grubs.

Good luck!

Friggatriskaidekaphobia – phobia of Friday the 13th

Monday, March 26th, 2012

Friggatriskaidekaphobia is a phobia of Friday the 13th.

In 2012 we already saw Friday the 13th in January. More are coming up in April and July.

Use this phobia as the starting point for a writing project this week.

Share a time when writing, yours or someone else’s, has “made a difference”.

(I know that’s kinda vague. It’s intentional :-p)
