I had the pleasure of enjoying a particularly helpful write night with my group last night. First of all, we are on such a high regarding all the good news some of our members have had lately. This makes everybody hopeful and happy and inspired, which is great creativity food! Tim brought a great voice exercise and we did our usual whining about his rules. Then we followed them like we always do, and I think we were all pretty pleased with what we wrote. Here's what we did:
Pick a magazine picture and then tell a narrative having something to do with that picture, but focus on the writing VOICE and make it very strong. Then we pass our stories to the right and either edit our partner's work to make the voice even stronger, or continue writing in the same voice they used. Challenging and good fun.
I've ended up using a lot of my write night production in projects I'm working on. It's something what you can come up with under the pressure of Tim's stopwatch. :o) And good company!
