HAVEN’T done a Friday Freewrite for a while. So, let’s do this.
Now if you live on the other side of the world these blog posts arrive a day early so you could be wondering why the heck, I’d send a Friday Freewrite on a Thursday which to you might be a Thursday night?
You’ve always received your tidbits a day early… heh heh, and you thought it was because this blog is so organized Hah! Not so.So, for Friday Freewrite we shall try to get those brain cells buzzing and find something new…
Here’s the thing:
Below is a picture. Don’t look just yet.
Check it out, grab your first thoughts.
Don’t analyze.
Now free write something inspired by the picture.
The rules [Yes, there are always rules] 🙁
1. Don’t think, WRITE! 🙂
2. NO Editing! Do not even rewrite or correct typos. I know it’s hard.
3. The writing doesn’t actually have to have anything to do
with the picture below. Write where your mind took you
(or takes you). It could be totally unrelated.
4. Write for 10 minutes without stopping. (Set a TIMER)
5. Post your random thoughts in the comments section below.
I look forward to seeing what you come up with!
Here’s the pic…
No, that could be an Advert… use it if it sparks something in you…
Else, here is the pic really…
