Writer’s Workshop — Shit or Get Off the Pot

For his Writer’s Workshop this week, John Holton gives us six writing prompts and we are tasked with choosing one of the prompts (or as many as we want) and writing a post that addresses that (or those) prompt(s). I chose two prompts for this week: (1) use the word “ignore,” and (2) write a post in exactly 8 sentences.

Tell me you love
Or tell me you don’t
Embrace me, kiss me, hug me
Or just walk away

Be all in with me
Or be all out
One way or the other
But don’t you dare ignore me

Writer’s Workshop — Collision

For his Writer’s Workshop this week, John Holton gives us six writing prompts and we are tasked with choosing one of the prompts (or as many as we want) and writing a post that addresses that (or those) prompt(s). I chose two of John’s prompts: (1) the word “accident,” and (2) “write a post in exactly 8 sentences.”


It was an accident

I didn’t mean for it to happen

He came out of nowhere

And zigged when I thought

He was going to zag

It wasn’t my fault

It was as much him as it was me

It was an accident
