Well, school’s started.
Your house is quiet.
Time to get writing.
But let’s be honest, letting go of those hazy, lazy days of summer is not easy. This summer I’ve enjoyed reading for pure pleasure and daydreaming of sandy beaches.
Are you mocked by your computer screen too? Mine stares at me like a two-year old who doesn’t understand the word no.
However, I’m determined to get my groove back and shake out the cobwebs. At my age, not an easy thing.
So it’s back to basics, and homework. Prompts to get the rust off and articles, books and websites that remind me how to write. Yes, I need reminding.
I’ve listed a few of my favs. Hope they help you get going this fall.
As I said, this is just a few of the many. I hope one or more of these great writers nudge you and get those fingers flying. Happy writing.
What it’s all about: Five Sentence Fiction is about packing a powerful punch in a tiny fist. Each week Lillie posts one word for inspiration, then anyone wishing to participate will write a five sentence story based on the prompt word.
Below is my contribution from a WIP:
From the moment she’d lost that first tooth, Lizbeth believed in faeries. Now, the proof lay open in her lap, its pages glowing with letters that shimmered and drawings that sparkled. The air hummed, alive, electric like the coming of a storm. She continued to whisper, watching in awe as the magical words breathed life into the enchanted fey.
One by one their wings fluttered, and unfolding as Monarchs from a flower they stretched lifting from the page.
