Re/Re/Rewrite August 21, 2022: LiveWriting
Hello Rewriters!
Because it’s mid-summer and we’re savoring the days before fall, this month’s re/re/rewrite involves no writing prior to our meeting; instead, we’ll meet and write together, live on August 21! Working in a single document and responding to mini-prompts, we’ll generate a collaborative piece. We’ll start by responding to three questions. Then, as we get going with, each participant will contribute a short prompt, guideline, or constraint at timed intervals to direct the writing. We have no idea what will happen!
Sample starting questions:
what does your favorite dessert taste like?
in one sentence, recall the nature of an animal you’ve encountered
describe a special room with attention to specific details
Sample interval prompt, guideline or constraint:
choose the line that resonates the most with you and add to it.
using first person, revise a section of the document to make it true.
revise at least five lines by rearranging the words in the lines.
repeat a line and make it into a new paragraph
We hope you’ll join us:
