Getting Going

Every now and then we need a kick to start writing. This little exercise makes for a good start.

Write
Make a list of fifteen things that you can see right now. Chose one at random. Write the letters of the item down the side of the page:
D
E
S
K

Now write a descriptive acrostic about the item, using as wide and interesting vocabulary as possible.

Squeeze out any creativity on to the paper
Keep your secrets; I'm going to write about my pen instead.

That should get you going *Wink*
