Prompts, Quotes, and Exercises to Jumpstart Your Creativity
Even dedicated and experienced writers need what author and writing coach Hal Zina Bennett provides: a fresh, fun, surefire place to start. In this handy resource, practiced and aspiring writers alike will find inspiration and initiative in the form of prompts for brief writing exercises, story prompts that set forth dramatic arcs for more lengthy works, readings with exercises that reflect on the art and craft of writing, and quotes from famous authors on the inner processes of successful work. Write Starts facilitates creativity like the perfect seat at a favorite café or a peaceful room of one’s own. What’s more, it puts you in the congenial company of a wise and expert coach.
Along this vein, I also highly recommend Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg. Both authors approach writing with excellent exercises that can really get your creativity unblocked and fresh. A favorite exercise I've learned is to take a random sentence from a random book as an opening and try to write a story around it. Try it!
