30 Day Blogging Challenge PROMPT March 25th I need your help to fill the Challenge War Chest! In your entry today, write at least three prompts you’d like to see used in future rounds of the 30DBC. Then, choose one of your own (or one from someone else if you aren’t the first to post) to write your entry on. Tell about a writing reference book you would recommend and why it is important to you. What book inspired you as a child? Why this book? What was its significance? What are some of the ways you are connecting with others during this time of social distancing? I am going to comment on my last idea - what are some of the ways you are connecting with others during this time of social distancing? I am lucky to have several local groups who are connecting with various forms of social media and social networking programs like Discord, Google Hangouts and GoToMeeting. I have had several virtual write ins - where we talk for a designated amount of time, then write for a designated time. We go back and forth between the two for a couple of hours. This is our usual format when we do it live, but on Discord we use a 'bot' as the timer instead of actual timers. We also check in on each other daily... it is a great way to lift each other up when anyone is getting down. My other group has done their virtual write ins with video calling. It's different and I like the variety. Having the virtual write ins gives me something to look forward to and also helps me remember what day it is. Being home all the time, I get lost in the web of time. Thank goodness my computer knows what day it is! Nanowrimo is even booting up with StayhomeWriMo and StayhomeWrimoprompts on Instagram. Camp NanoWriMo is also starting soon, so I will be able to chat with my cabin mates. The of course there is Writing.com where I can challenge myself with blogging challenges like this one and enter a contest a week. That gets me writing and gives some purpose to my writing. I can also email friends I have met and make sure they are doing okay. Blogging and reading and commenting on other people's blogs helps keep me in the loop as well. I may even sign on to do one of the workshops here on WDC. I haven't done too much on Facebook, but I have ventured into Twitter and Instagram. I also have my own web site that I am setting up... but it is still in the works. |
