Writing Exercises

Are you running out of writing exercise ideas? You've come to the right blog.
I believe, writing - or any other art form - takes practice. Some of us write morning pages, some keep diaries, some write a hundred drafts, others "keep in shape" with writing exercises.
Personally, I prefer writing exercises and am always looking for new ideas. Surely - I assume - I can't be the only writer out there, searching for fresh stimulation. That is why I designed this blog, to share my "starters" with you.
So, plant your butt on a chair and start writing. Better yet sign up and receive my new writing exercise postings via email.

Dialogue

He said. She said.
Write in dialogue only. Choose one of the following starters:
- "Let me explain...."
- "What happened?"
- "I'm standing right here. Ask me!"
- "Hang on! I'm coming."
- "This all looks pretty fishy to me..."
- "No money?"
- "What's this got to do with the missing fridge?"
- "Because I have your notes right here."
Write for ten minutes nonstop.
