Write The Book: Conversations on Craft
Arts:Books
Olena Kharchenko and Michael Sampson, co-authors The Story of Ukraine (Brown Books Kids).
We have two Write the Book Prompts this week. Michael Sampson offered one that seemed rather dark, so he turned it on its head and offered another that’s more upbeat. First, describe a nightmare you’ve had, including setting and details that explain why it is so terrifying. Second, look into the future and write about the happiest day you can imagine, including the location, and making your emotions come alive in your descriptions.
Good luck with your work in the coming week, and tune in next week for another prompt or suggestion.
