I follow Stephanie Orges’ blog – Bekindrewrite – and each month she sets a writing challenge, Inspiration Monday. This month we are trying something different, using ideas from two of her wring heroes; Miss Judy, her writing teacher, and writer, Ray Bradbury, of Fahrenheit 451 fame.
We will list headings, phrases, or potential book titles that come from our own experience. Something that has been lurking since we were children, waiting to be brought out in to the light. We’ll compare lists, then next month – using something from the list – write a piece to fit.
Here is my list:
The Open Window
The Old Straight Path
Home Alone
The Pressing Crowd
The Disappearing Parent
The Rusty Blade
Dead Dog’s Eye
The Darkness Beyond
The Pit
Quicksand
The White Bridge
Hall of Mirrors
The Solitary Chair
Face Paint
The Clown
Old Saint Nick
Martin’s Garden
Grandma and Vera (Giles cartoons)
Fester Bestertester (Don Martin character, Mad Magazine)
Scratchypen's Blog 
That is a long list! 🙂
Nice, might drop back in and try to use some of these as prompts once I get a little breathing room from the projects on my plate this week.
Yes, it will give me plenty to choose from 🙂 Good luck with the projects.
Ooo, the Old Straight Path, Dead Dog’s Eye, the Darkness Beyond, the Solitary Chair…your list is definitely stirring some things in me.
It is interesting to see how differently you view things from such a distant perspective. Looking forward to Monday.
