What are your writing fears? Preparing for the June Writing Challenge.

Posted in Writing Exercises by

We are coming up on another month with 30 days in it.

What a great time to create a new writing habit and complete a new challenge.

 

In preparing for next month, begin to think about what you are afraid of when it comes to your writing. What subjects are you afraid of addressing? What forms are you afraid of writing in? Where are you afraid to take your characters?

Begin to compile a list of these things.

Starting June 1st, you are going to tackle them. Write the story, poem, or article you are afraid to write. Put pen to paper and get down huge sections of the memoir that has been haunting you. Tackle forms and genres that you have found difficult.

June will be when you face your writing fears.


Get prepared now.

Spring Into Creativity 27/30 – Tell a story

Posted in Spring Into Creativity by

Use your creativity to tell a story. Try to use more than one form (expression) of creativity when telling that story.

You don’t have to be a prose writer to tell a story. (Don’t box yourself in by thinking that way.)

Be as non-traditional as possible.

It is Arbor Day! Hug a tree and get inspired. Look at some trees and get inspired. If you can, go plant a tree and get inspired. Create from that inspiration.
