April 11 Poetry Prompt: Opposite Day
Today's prompt focuses on your and your writing habits.
Challenge yourself today to write a poem in a manner that is very different from how you normally write, so different that it is actually the opposite of how you normally write.
Here are some suggestions:
Start with a title
Handwrite on lined paper
Handwrite on unlined paper
If you can find one, use a typewriter
Write with a pencil
Write standing up
Write during your lunch hour
Sit outside to write
Play music while you write
Start with the last line and write "up"
Rather than write your poem, record your poem
Begin writing when you first wake, put the poem away, then finish the draft right before
bed
Have fun!
