Writing Exercise: Using your own life as the basis,
write down the highlights and make sure to include happy times and
disappointments as well as your dreams and hopes. Using this description,
create a “hero” and a “villain” and the way they might react to marriage,
career and money.
Writing Prompt: In no more than five minutes, write
down every action word you can think of (it’s okay if you use different forms
of the word such as run-runs-running)
Writing Exercise:
We’ve all heard biblical stories, choose one. Rewrite the story in 2013.
For example, what would happen if a man came across a burning bush and expected
his followers to understand while he stayed there to receive a significant
message? Try to keep the miracle, but with the reactions and settings of today.
Writing Prompt:
Think of the most evil character you’ve ever written about, or use one
that you’ve read about if you need. Describe their best childhood friend and
whether they miss them today.
