Tammy's Trio
A Sample of the Bradbury Trio Challenge
Thank you for joining me today for the Bradbury Trio! I hope these readings are intriguing to you in some way and a little different than what you usually read.
I am hosting a 4 week course starting August 3 and you are invited. To give you a taste of the types of readings and writing we do I offer this free sampling of curated readings.
The Bradbury Trio [reading a poem, an essay, and a story every day] fuels my writing.
This trio structure inspires me to write after I read.
Good Words In = Good Words Out
My wish is the readings engage you in writing that would not otherwise be created.
Each piece can spark a response, but you can also respond to the three as a collective. The approaches are slightly different but can yield amazing results.
Today’s Trio
Poem: The Way It Is
Prompt: What thread do you follow?
Story: Coyote, Bones, Howl
Prompt: Take three words and write a paragraph into each.
Read what you wrote.
What is a thread that can be woven into all three to link them together?
Essay: Girls Who Journal Have Always Been Radical
Thank you
for recommending this essay!Prompt: What is your personal relationship with journaling? Why do YOU do it, or avoid it?
Collective Writing Prompt:
Take a word, a phrase, a sentence, or an idea from one of these readings and write into it. Yes, it seems simple, but if you write in proximity to the readings you will find the influence coming to you softly like a whisper in your ear. You may not even recognize it til later. I have found some writers don’t recognize it at all! On one of the course Zoom’s someone made the comment that the readings didn’t influence them at all and other students pointed out where their piece reminded them of the readings.
Experiment and see what happens.
If you like this concept and it fuels you I invite you to join me for 4 weeks of the Bradbury Trio Course!
