FOR FRIDAY, MARCH 26, 2010

Hello my dear creativing writing class,

Besides working on a final draft of your "THE SUMMER I WAS..." for Monday, I want you to play around with a few ONLINE poetry, writing prompts. Most of these are really quite elementary, but they allow you to work with words and play around creatively with writing.

Just take the links below. READ THROUGH ALL OF THE INSTRUCTIONS. And try the activities a few times.

WHEN YOU ARE DONE, post some of your "mini-poem creations" on your blog. PLEASE BE SURE TO NOTE WHERE THE 'mini-poem creations' came from (i.e.....Which ONLINE exercise or webpage).

Here's a list. Try at least two to three of them:

1) RANDOM POETIC PHRASE GENERATOR
2) RANDOM SIMILE GENERATOR
3) RANDOM OXYMORON GENERATOR
4) MAGNETIC POETRY ONLINE (Try a few of these different online versions.)
