This series of writing practice prompts coordinate with the Returning to Grace Incarnational Study found here.
Monday: If I had five minutes more…
Tuesday: If you had five minutes more…
Wednesday: If I had known you were listening…
Thursday: When I found you had…
Friday: When I heard…
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.
