Just Write

Weave journal discoveries into stories

If you “keep a journal,” you can weave some entries into stories. Give your fictional characters  personality traits, attitudes or habits discovered in journal writing.

Hand writing in journalEach day write about what surprised you, what moved you, what inspired you. Even if you think you have nothing to say, sit down and start writing.

Write about the worst thing that happened to you and the best thing that happened to you each day.

Just write!

Inspired from an article in the December 2000 issue of Good Housekeeping, “The Question Journal,” by Rachel Naomi Remen, M.D., author of My Grandfather’s Blessings: Stories of Strength, Refuge, and Belonging.
