Sunday Scribblings Offer Incentive and Inspiration



Writers of fantasy; prose poetry; real life reflections, there is a great spot for you online to meet up with other creative writers. Oft times writers are prompted by small things, a leaf on a tree; meeting someone for lunch; a view; and in the case of Sunday Scribblings an idea suggested by lovers of what pen to paper can produce.

Meg Genge and Laini Taylor invite writers to check into their blog once a week, see what their lasted suggestion is and post in on Sundays.

WONDERFUL!

* #131 -- FORBIDDEN
* #130 -- Wedding
* #129 - Invitation
* #128 -- Coffee
* #127 - Miracle

So try it! Human beings are creative, and yes that includes ALL of us. We design our own persona; decide on what foods to eat or deny; set our tables; paint our houses; choose a couch to sit on. Those are just small efforts that we all do in inventive ways. Despite what might be forming on your lips as a protest to this, I would say, "Try it!" Decide to step past your journal...or to begin a journal! Take steps to understand your own artistic abilities, that you may not have even know existed before. Some of you may be seasoned writers who need some new energy. Either way, jump in, see what Sunday Scribblings latest prompt is... and WRITE!
