Just Keep Writing: December 23, 2022 - Friday Fascicles

 Welcome! I know I usually post a writing update here, but this week is far too hectic. Just let me say that we're all doing pretty well just keeping going at this point. Spartacus has been finding all the warm spaces to curl up during this really cold weather we're not used to in Louisiana. Can y'all believe we might actually get a white Christmas this year? Then again, it might just be icy. I pray everyone does their best to stay safe. I'd rather plans get shifted around than risk serious danger, you know? If y'all pray, please keep us in your prayers. Thanks!

Let me get to the writing prompt, now. 

Just Keep Writing: Friday Fascicles

If this is your first time participating in this kind of writing exercise, you're in for a treat. If you've done this with me before, just keep scrolling for the prompt.

Rules:

1. You can use any/all of the words and/or the photo in the prompt below to create a unique written work. Fiction or nonfiction, poetry or prose, even lyrics are acceptable.  
2. Please keep the material you write clean (ie. nothing R-rated or worse) if you wish to share the link to your work here, as well as if you link back to my site. I strive to keep my site free of such things. My readers know and expect this. I respect your right to write whatever you feel you need to write. And you're free to use my prompts. But if your material is graphic, I'd rather not view it, and most of my readers will not wish to. 
3. Have fun! This type of exercise is perfect for growing in the writing craft, or for helping through a rough patch in your current WIP. If you're looking to push your author limits and you normally write in nonfiction prose, try a whimsical collection of lyrics. If you normally write poems about real life events, try your hand at a fanfic. Give yourself some room to explore.

Don't forget to leave a link to your creation (unless you're writing graphic material) so my readers and I can check out your work. I'd appreciate a link back to this post to help me reach more readers, but it's not required.

I'm so glad you took time to read today's post. I hope you found it helpful or encouraging. Don't forget to check out Jill's gallery on Pexels.com. 

I'm sorry this one is so short compared to the past few Friday posts. I'll be back to the usual Friday posts soon. 

Merry Christmas fellow writers, readers, and creatives! Whatever winter holiday you celebrate, I hope you have a happy and safe celebration. 

I'll be back Monday with another writing prompt. I plan to go back to my usual Friday posts next week. There just wasn't enough time in my schedule. I hope you enjoyed your visit today and that you'll visit again.

Until next time...
