Vermont poet Laura Budofsky Wisniewski, the author of Sanctuary, Vermont (Orison).
This week’s Write the Book Prompt was generously suggested by my guest, Laura Budofsky Wisniewski. Set a timer and start writing. Do not stop. Even if you have to occasionally write the same word over and over until the next word comes, keep it up. When the timer goes off at whatever point you designated - two minutes, five minutes, twenty - stop writing. If what you were creating was poetry, use the next little while to make line breaks in the piece. Then delete everything that’s not interesting and see what you have come up with.
Good luck with your work in the coming week, and tune in next week for another prompt or suggestion.
