Since I was a kid, I have always enjoyed writing. I figure there might be something to my enjoyment, and why shouldn't I build my skill. I'm going to be using this really awesome book,
642 Things to Write About, by the San Francisco Writers' Grotto to do just that. This book is full of writing prompts to help with writers block and to help expand creative thinking.
Who hasn't felt like getting older has sucked all of the childlike wonder from your imagination? I know I sure have felt this way a lot recently. Thus, I will be trying to do a promo every day. Some may be longer or better than others, but I'm re-awakening a hobby that I've kept dormant for quite some time. Please, feel free to join me on this journey and leave your comments and/or own responses to the prompts in the comments section.
