Writing Practice Rules:

  • Grab a pen and paper or dictation device or computer.

  • Write/record the prompt at the top of your page.

  • Set a timer (you can adjust the time to suit your needs…I keep the practices short so they don’t seem overwhelming).

  • Take a few moments to visualize what the prompt is bringing up.

  • Write or speak or type!! Try not to edit or criticize. Just write.

  • Write the details of what is coming up. I call this catching what rises.

  • If you get stuck, make loops with your pen or nonsense syllables with your voice or tap the keyboard.

  • If you get really stuck, rewrite/record the prompt as a new paragraph.

  • Write the details of what you are seeing until the timer goes off.

These prompts coordinate with Community as Creation Incarnational Study.
