#WriteAroundtheCorner
Since we had two weeks since the last meeting, we began with a warm up.
1. List five things that have happened since our last meeting. Things you have done, special events, anything that you might want to share.
2. From A Book That Takes Its Time
Answer this series of questions:
A. If nothing could stop you, what would your big dream be?
B. What is the most appealing aspect of this particular dream? What feeling or image relates to it?
C. What part of your dream is in reach?
D. What would the first stop be toward it?
E. Which dream will never come true? Is that such a bad thing?
Final words on dreams:
#3. Practice writing details
Here were the three choices for descriptive writing:
A man lifting a bottle of cold beer.
10-year-old just returning from school on a hot day.
Woman waiting for a city bus in the rain.
(This activity elicited wonderful responses, and everyone read theirs. Pretty darn cool!)
In addition, Mo told us about a book she read which she found very inspiring:
Learning to Dance Inside
I have made a commitment to three things: finding time for Blue Space (beach, sky), Green Space (earth, woods), and the responses I have to poets & writers. I seek to discover the art of being.
