Writers' Chasm

This is a new series inspired by my Intro to Creative Writing class. We start out every class period with fifteen minutes to write a piece based on a prompt given to us by the professor. Every Friday I'll post a short prompt. Write for ten minutes on a piece based on that prompt. It can be a short story, a poem, creative non-fiction, anything. Then post a few of your favorite lines in the comments. This week's prompt: Spring Break

This is a new series inspired by my Intro to Creative Writing class. On Tuesday, I posted about getting outside of your writing comfort zone and mentioned using prompts to help. In Intro to CW, we start out every class period with fifteen minutes to write a piece based on a prompt given to us by a professor. I thought it might be fun to give it a try on the blog. So, here's my suggestion. Every Friday I'll post a short prompt. Write for ten minutes on a piece based on that prompt. It can be a short story, a poem, anything. Then post a few of your favorite lines in the comments. This week's prompt: It's a snow day!
