How to Make an Instant Writing Workshop

by Heather Goldsmith on May 8th, 2008

Two People Writing

Several weeks ago, maybe even more than a couple of months ago, a friend asked if I’d do a workshop. Of course, I agreed. I mean they’re going to pay me, so it’s worth the effort. I was given a vague idea of the month it might be in, but that was all. On Sunday a lady from the organisation rang to confirm I’d still be doing the workshop this Saturday. What the..? No one told me it was that soon, but I didn’t let it put me off. I agreed and will be there on Saturday arvo to get some ladies writing a marathon.

So, what’s the first thing I did? I went through the journal writing prompts category right here in this blog. I’ve selected several I feel will good for a group. Then I went through all my photos, and some online ones, and made a folder with great visual prompts. I’ll print those up tomorrow in the smaller size, so they will be perfect to hand out to the workshop participants. I have also dug out some journal writing cards I made for another workshop ages ago and will have those on hand.

It’s likely I’ll have more than I need, but I gather that’s all good. How long did it take me? About 15 minutes. Once I get the photos printed, I’m done. Please feel free to use any of my journal writing prompts, or any other exercise or idea, from this blog in a writing group, but please let people know where you got the information. Please leave any comments in the section below.
