Writing Prompt 220 – what do you really want?

Prompt

“Shame is the magic killer.” – Carolyn Elliot

On Writing

Breathe the sentence in. Exhale the sentence. Inhale and exhale each word. Now inhale and exhale the sentence. Then, go!

There is only one rule, keep your hand moving.

Don’t worry about grammar, spelling, or punctuation. If you feel stuck, keep writing anyway. Try going back to the prompt and write it out until other words arise, then write those—or, repeat the last word you wrote again and again until new words appear—or, write, “I am stuck,” or “I can’t think of anything,” as long as you keep your hand moving. Writing is physical, the words will move through your body and come out of your hand—just keep it moving.

Now go – for five, ten, fifteen minutes . .

  1. A quote by Anthony Hopkins…..None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Eat delicious food, walk in the sunshine, jump into the ocean, say the truth that you are carrying in your heart like a hidden treasure, be silly, be kind, be weird there is no time for anything else.
