Writing Exercise for January
My writing group (the awesome The Pointe Writers Group) recently decided to do online writing prompts and exercises.
I thought a blog would be a great place to do them, to let anyone in who wanted to participate, and to create a fun little social interaction area.
Expectations: People do the exercise and then post it as a comment. Others are free to read and comment on those exercises.
So, here is the first one. I got this from James Maxey at our COWW (COdex Writer Workshop) in 2008. He called it a noun exercise for getting more concrete in writing.
Look around you where you are writing this. Pick specific items that you see and write them into a story. Try to get as many specific items as you can in 10 minutes.
Ready? Go!
