This is a writing prompt swap, the second in a series based on writing prompt in the book "Story Starters." See below for author info. Write a scene or a story using any one of the following prompts: a) Your character inherited 500 acres of rich farmland in Kansas, USA. b) Your character is asked to house-sit for someone who will be in Europe for six months. It changes her life. c) Something magical happens to your character on a ski slope. Send two partners a typed copy of your scene or story. Snail mail. International. Group membership SPECIAL NOTE: This swap is based on an exercise in a great book that I encourage you to read, especially those who love writing prompts. "Story Starters" by Lou Willett Stanek, Ph.D. ISBN 0-380-79552-3 The sub-title of the book is: "How to jump-start your imagination, get your creative juices flowing, and start writing your story or novel." I bought it several years ago, so I'm not sure if there's an updated edition, but that's the ISBN on my copy. |
