Be That Writer update
This is a special update from Be That Writer. Be That Writer would like to offer you a friendly, inspirational challenge.
Be That Writer would like you to take part in the following exercise. Look around you and see what you can see. Pick up on one item and write between 50 and 150 words on that item.
If you wish, you can send the finished written article to Be That Writer in the form of a comment to this article. Or you can keep it and see if you can use it as the basis for a saleable article. And before you dismiss this idea, consider this: G.K. Chesterton once wrote an article for a newspaper entitled: "What I found in my pocket."
There's no time limit to this exercise and no prizes. Please have fun with this.
