89 Days Remain
A continuation of my #last100days2023 project
Welcome to my #last100dayproject!
What are you focusing on for the remainder of 2023?
There are 89 days left of the year 2023.
You can begin today! I give you permission!
What do you want to make a priority for the remainder of the calendar year?
Today’s prompt:
What image or memory comes to mind when you think of the word SOUVENIR?
There are all types of souvenirs. There are paper ones, throwaway ones, purchased ones, photos, etc.
Elizabeth McCracken has an amazing collection of short stories called, THE SOUVENIR MUSEUM.
I invite you to search your notebooks and drives for the prompt word and see what old words you have that you can resurrect and revise.
What will you write today?
A list of souvenirs you have collected
What might be contained in a museum of souvenirs?
What are nontraditional souvenirs? Like scars?
A memory of a souvenir or the trip it was acquired on
One sentence about a souvenir
Maybe you start a conversation with a stranger about the word and that is the story you write. Whatever you choose - have fun!
Happy writing!
One of the other projects that I have done before is OCTPOWRIMO - This is where you write a poem a day for the month. There was a website in the past I have used for prompts but it seems to be inactive.
Another blogger: ARHtistic License alerted me to a new site!
You can follow daily poem prompts and poem form suggestions here: Experience Writing
I invite you to leave a comment even if you are just reading and not doing a project! Just say hello so I know you are out there! You belong simply because you are here.
I would love to hear about your progress on your projects too!!

**NOTE**
I do not share drafts of work online because most publications considered this published. You are more than welcome to share your piece in the comments, an excerpt, a link to your blog/Substack, or an update.
I hope for the comments to be a community for us to share these wins.
