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: This is ‘stolen’ from Linda Barry because I love her so much. Write a list of ten cars that have appeared in your life. Pick number 7 and write the story of that car, using all of your senses as you’re writing.
