Speak Up · Writing Prompts Sheet 092 speakupgroups.com Writing 1 Write about old folks, old-timers, and being old. Or write about youth and the young. Start with this sentence: I don’t know about you, but I… Write about your favorite ________. (Color, song, food, person, book, anything.) Writing 2 Respond to this quote by Jim Elliot: “Wherever you are, be all there.” Light. Darkness. Is there something in your life that you need to release? It could be anything: an old pair of shoes, an idea or belief, a relationship, a habit. Maybe it is a bad thing, maybe it is a good thing. Now imagine you have released that thing. What would that be like? Home is… Homelessness is… Writing 3 Write about beauty. Write a letter to a five-year-old explaining something big and serious: like death or divorce or racism or religion. Write a versus piece — cats versus dogs, right versus wrong, coffee versus tea. |
