This made me think about writing a scene with a large group of people in it. It’s tricky to manage the dynamics of a group on the page–you need to try to focus in on a couple of the key characters, while letting the others have impact on the plot. Any of you want to try writing a scene like that? Let me know how it goes #creativity #writingprompt #500words #books #amwriting #characterstudy #scene

We’ve been busy celebrating Easter together with #family in the U.K. since Me and Me came our last week. I haven’t written a word BUT I still spend time in the evenings thinking over ideas and letting them build steam. Could you jot down five ideas–no matter how daft? Putting down ideas like this can get your brain in the mode for inspiration–maybe one of your ideas might end up being fantastic. And soon, soon it’ll be time to actually get writing again ;-) #amnotwriting #creativity #books

Getting ready to launch the Grade Two books that they’ve each made with me. We are going to have cookies and do a reading. I made this poster so the kids have an idea which questions parents might ask. Then I figured it might be a good way to get some of you writing today: could you write 500 words about a writer? Saying that, I should probably go and get some of my own work done (but it’s so much more fun making posters ;-) #inspiration #creativity #writingprompt #500words #books #makingbookswithkids

Just sitting around waiting for Yann to fuel the car. Made me think about writing a story–I hope this prompt works for you. Use this opening to free write for fifteen minutes. #writing #books #500words #writingprompt #creativity #inspiration

So much for photos in Mexico. With no wifi, I took a total tech break and didn’t gather any writing prompts for you. But last night my son made this and it sparked my imagination. Write today about someone really tiny and what the ordinary world would look like to them. Change perspectives and spark your own imagination! Happy writing #writing #writingprompt #books #writingwithkids #500words #creativeliving #go

I love a little magic in stories and this made me feel a little magical. Hopefully it inspires a bit of writing today–or reminds you of a novel you love. #books #writingprompt #writing

I love days when I get to go into schools and work. A whole grade two class today, each making their own books. We used the idea of rescue to get us started and it’s amazing how they’ve all run with the idea. It’s a good reminder that writing is fun! (Sometimes ;-). Write your own rescue story today … #creativity #books #writingprompt #writing #writingwithkids #shelfie
