Prompts for the BW Meeting January 12, 2007


By beanerywriters(11,675)



The Beanery Writers Group invites blog visitors to write on the prompts below (these are the prompts being used at their meeting Jan. 12). Write for seven minutes. Edit the writing.

To submit, click on the title of this submission, "Invitation to Write Prompts for January 12, 2007." Scroll down to the box and type in your name, E-mail and the title of the piece. Then type (or cut and paste) your response in your writing in the comments box.

DON'T FORGET TO CLICK ON POST WHEN DONE!  Carolyn

#1  Writers need to have a story worth telling, whether it’s memoir, fiction or any other genre. But ordinary lives aren’t compelling, to readers or publishers.

Choose an event from your life and consider why anyone would care to read about it.

Say to yourself, “I’m going to make this so memorable, so great to read, that even though I’m no one, a stranger would be interested in what I have to say.” I’m going to see this event “out of the box” through another’s eyes, or perhaps from another viewpoint.

 #2  Take the same event as you used in the first prompt and embellish the “event” using fictional details and characters.

Have fun!    Carolyn
