Write The Book: Conversations on Craft
Arts:Books
Vermont Author M.T. Anderson, whose debut graphic novel was released in March: Yvain - The Knight of the Lion (Candlewick Press).
This week’s Write the Book Prompt is to re-imagine a legend, be it Arthurian, Shakespearean, Tolkien or J.K. Rowlian. Read part or all of a famous legend and write a poem, a scene, or a story inspired by your experience of what you’ve read. You don’t have to stick to the story, or even reflect it subtly. Just let it inspire you. See where it might lead to read an old tale. Here are links to a handful of possibilities to help you get started:
The Odyssey
Robin Hood
King Arthur
Romeo and Juliet
The Hobbit
A Vermont Legend about Ethan Allen
Good luck with your work in the coming week, and please listen next week for another prompt or suggestion.
