Select a piece of your work and re-write it using as much poetic style and cadence and rhythm as you can. Do NOT make it poetry, though, but rather peotic prose.

Write about a character who has published some impressive work but who now can't seem to get words onthe page.

1) Write a setting that you have encountered recently that you have found interesting. 2) Add a character to the setting that should NOT be there. Expand this with sensory detail. 3)Ask yourself: What is this character doing there? What is compelling this character? What is compelling ABOUT this character?

Write about the car with the missing headlight.
