PROMPT THIRTY – MENTAL MOVIES
At the
start of your writing time for the day, jot down three ideas that interest you.
Then pick the one that most interests you. Close your eyes and imagine it as a
movie playing inside your head. What happens? Write about what took place
inside your head.
Instead of
a topic you can do this with a character. In this case, close your eyes and
picture the first person that comes to mind. Describe this person and then plop
him/her into a setting and see what develops.
In either
case, let the images flow on their own and write down the result in your
movie/writing journal.
My movie
journal entry for this exercise is based on an image of an angel coming to my
mind.
Angels and Children – Tommy is a junior angel. His eighth
birthday was just around the corner when he was called back to heaven. That was
a year ago. His first assignment starts when a young mother prays for her six-year-old
child who is starting school the next day. Tommy must help the handicapped
Patrick as he navigates the strange, new environment without friends and hiding
a handicap. Quite a first assignment for a junior angel.
