Your Assignment, Should You Choose To Accept

March 15, 2010 · 19 comments

Directions: You can learn more about Writer’s Workshop here….it’s never to late to jump in!! Here is what you must do:

  • Choose a prompt that inspires you most.
  • Write.
  • Come back this Thursday and paste the URL to your actual post (do this by clicking the title of your post after you hit publish, an extended URL will come up in the address bar. That’s the URL you want to use) into the Mister Linky that will be up…this way anyone can click on your name and head over to your place to see what you wrote.

Feel free to write on more than one prompt if you so desire. I do it all the time, but it’s my game…and I don’t know how to shut-up…so it should be expected. And remember the more comment love you give, the more comment love you get so comment comment away.

The Prompts:

1.) If you had to relive a day in your life what day would it be?

2.) When do you first imagine yourself wishing you were older or bigger?  Write about it.

3.) Could a routine become interesting through words?  Write about a person (perhaps you) caught up in a daily routine.  Establish a rhythm with the story’s words that impersonates the rhythm of the routine.

4.) Describe how your relationship with your spouse is different then the relationship your parents had while you were growing up.

5.) Write about someone who is an underdog.

Which one will you choose?

I am sooo doing #3. I am in a routine for sure.

Kat- I have a specific request for a Writing Workshop Prompt… Maybe you can help me out?

Here goes:
Write a fund raising marketing brochure for a non-profit hospital in – oh, let’s say South Jersey. It should be about 450 words, and must be completed by March 25.

Part of the challenge would be to directly e-mail me, erica, all the responses.

Yes? No?

I love your prompts so much and one day when I am not so crazy I will use one and write and learn how to link up, for now….clueless to the linky’s.

Every week I cringe at your assignments and am reverted back to my 12 year old self wanting to whine “but it’s tooooooo hard.” And then I stew over it until something knocks me over the head shouting “ding, ding, ding.”
Right now I’m still in the grumbling phase.

This is my first week to join. I’m doing number 1. I love that you do this. I’ve enjoyed reading the assignments for the past couple of weeks and thought I’d give it a go.
