For Christ sake write and don’t worry about what the boys will say nor whether it will be a masterpiece nor what. I write one page of masterpiece to ninety-one pages of shit.
- Ernest Hemingway, in a letter to F. Scott Fitzgerald
Writing Prompt Key
Write about your writing. Begin with the line: “If I didn’t care what anyone would say…”
Write without worry. Write without censoring yourself. You don’t have to share it.
But you can write it.
Guidelines for Free Writing:
Set a timer for 10 - 15 minutes.
Write the entire time, no matter what.
It doesn’t have to be edited, spell-checked, or in any way polished. This is just practice.
Community Key
Our next Writing Cafe will be Wednesday, August 10 at 12:30 pm Pacific Time. We will gather via zoom to give ourselves time to write. I’ll provide a prompt, but you are welcome to use this time tok on your own project. There is no expectation to share your writing. The writing cafe will last no longer than 30 minutes. If you sign on late, no problem. Just jump in and begin writing! Join us here.
💙 Write on,
