This Week’s Writing Prompt
Each week the featured author offers a writing prompt for you to use at home. I suggest setting a timer for 6 or 8 minutes, putting the writing prompt at the top of your page, and free writing whatever comes to mind. Remember, the important part is keeping your pen moving. You can always edit later. Right now we just want to write something new and see what happens.
This week’s writing prompt is: Dig up an old photo of yourself on a holiday. Preferably one with you and with people in the background. Now imagine yourself as one of the people in the background and how they regard you taking a photo as a tourist.
