64 Days Remain

A continuation of my #last100days2023 project

Welcome to my #last100dayproject!

What are you focusing on for the remainder of 2023?

There are 64 days left of the year 2023.

I give you permission to begin today!

Today’s prompt:

What image or memory comes to mind when you think of “hair”?

What relationship do you have to your hair? To someone else’s?

One of my favorite stories about hair is a chapter in Sandra Cisneros’ book, House on Mango Street.

My hair has been almost every color and I have a story about why I colored it. I have chopped my hair off many many times.

I hate wearing hats, but had a haircut so bad one time I had to wear one.

I learned to french braid my hair from my paternal grandmother who had no girls. I imagine she braided her sister’s hair but I don’t know who taught her.

What are your hair stories?

I invite you to search your notebooks and drives for the prompt word and see what drafts you have that you can resurrect and revise.

What will you write today?

• A list

• A metaphor

• A memory

• One sentence containing the word

• A 6 sentence story (Like Meg Pokrass)

• A 10 sentence story (like Erin Morgenstern)

Whatever you choose - have fun!

Happy writing!

I invite you to leave a comment!

You belong simply because you are here.
