Memoir Writing Prompt for Practicing Your Writing
“Practice, practice, practice.” That’s what my music teacher, Mrs. Griffiths, told me each week as I opened her front door and prepared to escape. It wasn’t really that bad. I liked taking piano and eventually piano and organ lessons. I managed to get good enough to be the organist at my high school and later the pianist at my second high school. This meant I played for assemblies.
So while the world (aka high school version) looked on with satisfaction, I knew I wasn’t very good. And practice, I did. The most fun was playing pieces, but the first part of each session began with scales. The same scales over and over again.
These days, Kendra and I try to make writing prompts, the writing equivalent of scales, fun rather than mundane. Research shows that when you have fun, you spend more time at an activity. We hope the video below will intrigue you and that you’ll follow the writing prompt that comes at the end.
