Song lyrics can offer inspiration to write, like “Defying Gravity” in the production of “Wicked.”
Specific lines to use in your writing from “Defying Gravity.”
Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I’m through with playing by
The rules of someone else’s game
It’s time to trust my instincts
I think I’ll try defying gravity
And you can’t pull me down
Write about a tradition that scared you as a child.
Or, something unique to your family.
See what CM Riddle wrote on this subject, Wild Man of The Hunt.
Just write!

Using sensory detail when writing.
You can use any place you wish.
The prompts use “house.”
Prompt 1
When I walk into where I live, I smell . . .
You could write about where you presently live, where you have lived in the past, or a place you frequent (now or in the past).
Prompt 2
When I walk into my house, I can taste . . .
You can switch from “house” to “heart.”
Example: If you walked into my heart, you would taste melted butter on crispy toast, creamy coffee first thing in the morning, sweet and sour flashes of time rushing away from me.
Prompt 3
When I walk into where I live, I hear . . .
Or: When you walk into my house, you can touch . . .
Use the details of texture.
You could write in first person point of view, or second person.
Prompts inspired from Jennie Linthorst, a poet, expressive writing teacher, and founder of LifeSPEAKS Expressive Writing & Poetry Therapy.
