Writing prompt No. 33

A weekly writing exercise to get you started

By Heather Wright
Published: February 10, 2012
Today we’ll do something a little different. You pick your topic. Now get away from the keyboard and write with a pencil or pen and paper. If you already write in longhand, change your paper, use colored pens, or change your location.

 

Heather Wright's work has been published in local and national publications and on the Web. Her column “Write Angles,” published in What If? Canada’s Creative Magazine for Teens, became the basis of her book, Writing Fiction: A Hands-On Guide for Teens.
