🆆 Micro Monday: Be Curious

Start Here | Micro Mondays | 10-Min LWS | 3 Things | Writing Workshops | Paid Subs

Hi! I’m bestselling author and poet Darien Gee. Welcome to Writer-ish, where I help you write your most powerful stories in 300 words or less. If you’re new to micro prose and writing with me, check out this post here.

Literature allows us to be open, to listen, and to be curious.

Tracy K. Smith

Write about a tradition.

Set the timer for 10 minutes and start writing. When the timer goes off, give the piece a title, count up the words, add it to your TOC, and share it the comments below.

To see what’s happening on Writer-ish this month, here’s the full calendar for August.
