2025 New Year's writing resolution: spend 10 minutes a day getting words on the page.
Today is the start of January's FLASH WEEK.
- We start with a blank sheet of paper.
- For seven days, we pledge our 10 minutes a day to Flash Week.
- We end with a complete flash fiction story of ~900-1200 words.
This is still (always) a no-homework podcast! Every episode, we build in ten minutes of time for ourselves to do the assignment, and the assignment is always to write write write. But for this special flash fiction week, rather than using standalone exercises for our kickoff prompts, we will carry our work from Day 1 over to Day 2, etc, all the way through Day 7 and THE END.
Today is Day 1 and today we brainstorm story seeds. As usual your anonymish host is writing along. She's inspired by a weird lizard fact OR an image of bubbles, she'll have to pick.
You can write to our daily writing prompt, but you could also:
- journal
- brainstorm
- write for your work in progress
All that matters is that you do write and you don't cheat and you don't stop writing until the music comes in.
