I haven't blogged in a while but I am newly refocused and invigorated. I attended the SC Literary Conference this weekend and was inspired to start blogging again. I met some great authors and publishers. I also attended a writing workshop lead by Susan Kammeraad-Campbell from Joggling Press. She had us do an activity that she calls "Bouncing with Tigger". Its like word association but using the last word of a sentence to trigger your next sentence. It was very creative. I am including what I wrote in the 5 minute time limit. It is definitely a good exercise to do if you are having writer's block.
The girl walked into the forest.
The forest was dark.
Darkness is the absence of light.
Light brings us happiness.
Happiness blooms inside of us.
Inside is where we are ourselves.
One's self can be lonely.
Lonely is the person who can't share their thoughts and feelings with others.
Feelings are our emotions way of talking.
Talking is sometimes overrate, showing is better.
Showing someone you love them is a great gift.
Gifts come in all shapes and sizes.
Size doesn't matter, it only matters if you care about it.
Caring is one of the things that makes us humans.
Humans are not alone in this universe.
The universe is vast an mostly unknown.
The unknown can be scary.
