Writing Practice: Let the Motion Carry You

Writing Prompt: What I carried with me…

3-5 minutes

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
