Assignment - Bad Endings

Sandra said Sep 18, 9:33 AM:

 

ok, so this one may or may not work, but we are not in the business of working are we?

Inspired by Azhy and Nono:

Pull a few random books from your bookshelf. Probably novels or books of poetry but they could be anything.

Choose a title.

Write the title down. Don't think too hard, but you are going to write the ending to this book….for 20 minutes. See if you can actually hit a last line in those 20 minutes. In fact, type END at the end.  Ok?

Write what comes up!
Do not edit as you write.
Go fearward!
Give all the details..

If you are drawn to write more than 20 mins, fine, but see if you can pour all your energy into it - don't go on too long, not more than a chapter or a 'last' poem… and don't forget to write END.

Post the work up on the Responses to Assignment board, do not edit what you have written.
