Day 12: “Where” Writing
I am following the outline in “SONG-WRITING WITHOUT BOUNDARIES” by Pat Pattison. I hope to be learning to be a lyricist and Pattison uses timed writing. I ordered his book and started this challenge because of another Vocal author.

What I Do When I Am Having a Rough Day
How do you begin to turn things around after a rough day? Rupi Kaur Gratitude Writing Prompts For me, this is something I put into practice many years ago. I take fifteen minutes, maybe twenty minutes, and hang out with it. What is it exactly that is going on? Is there something I can do about it? Is it worth crying over? Is it worth swearing about? Will I feel better crying/swearing? Yes. Okay, do it!

Who was the last person you expressed gratitude toward and how was it received? Just before I started to write this, I was texting with a friend. She had just returned to the States from Mexico.

It Felt Like A MovieTop Story - April 2024
