A CREATIVE COLLECTIVE COLLECTION Of COMPETITIONS - John Edwards - Bog

No more WRITERS' BLOCK!A CREATIVE COLLECTIVE COLLECTION of COMPETITIONS is written for those among us who suffer from the dreaded WRITERS' BLOCK.That was the idea anyway.Personally I have never knowingly suffered from this disease.I don't doubt many truly believe they have got it as they sit staring either at a blank piece of paper or screen. To you I say; read this book and try out the simple exercises - they'll change your whole attitude and banish anylethargic feelings in the future.Depending on the genre, stories have similar component parts; Murder/Mystery will require information aboutCAUSE of DEATH, VICTIM, MOTIVE and CLUE;Wild West may mention: CHARACTERS, LOCATION, QUOTATION and OBITUARY;and Poetry will show the OPENING LINE and the THEME.Under each of these component parts (CATEGORIES) there are six choices (INGREDIENTS) one of which has to be involved in your story.These categories and ingredients will now be referred to as CAT-INGSThese 'cat-ings' are the prompts from which you base your story.Creative juices are nudged into action and lethargy is banned for good!
