Is Creative Writing Calling to You But You Don’t Know Where to Begin?
I know that feeling so well!! I could do creative writing but I needed something to prime the well.
Having a topic is fine, but can result in a rather academic research-based approach.
Knowing who will be receiving the writing results in letters or emails, but how exactly do you get started with creative writing?
That’s when it helps to have a prompt, an unfinished sentence, or an image that invites your mind to remember a scene or describe a character. Any of these can be a jumping-off point that inspires you to write one sentence.
And another.
And another.
This is exactly how I began to write years ago. Because I know the value of that first sentence…and how hard it can be, I started The Reflective Collective where each morning you receive a few words that will prompt you to write a sentence, and before you know it you have a paragraph and are on your way to a story.
