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.

Leonardo 3

From the notebook of Leonardo:
If you say that poetry is more everlasting than painting, to this I would reply that the works of a smith are more enduring still, since time preserves them longer than either your words or paintings.

What would you answer Leonardo to his statement?
Write for ten minutes.
