The Prompt Box
A new resolution halfway through the year... I recently discovered, through a great blog I stumbled across during the A-Z Challenge, the wonders of a Prompt Box (she'd posted about it recently). Brilliant! Why hadn't I thought of this? I used prompts for years when I was teaching writing, but had never really applied them to myself. Complete disconnect there...wow. So I made one yesterday. This is my Prompt Box. I filled it with quotes, images, ideas, and things that inspire me. Every time I pull a prompt out, I will replace it with a new inspiration. Whatever I come across that speaks to me. With this box, I will finally begin to write the way I should be writing...the way I want to be writing. Every. Damn. Day. For a minimum of ten minutes; more if I am on a roll! I might post some things. Others I will not. I believe, in this practice, I will find serenity, creativity, passion, and catharsis....
