Tammy's Trio on Tuesday
Reflections and Readings from My Bradbury Trio Program
I am working in a Starbucks today. I can focus here.
I am listening to Lidia Yuknavitch talk about writing through my earphones. I am responding to prompts. I am rereading a journal from my writer’s retreat in Colorado last year.
I am having major withdrawals from my time in Iceland. It keeps coming up in my writing whether I start there or not.
The Bradbury Trio [reading a poem, an essay, and a story every day] fuels my writing.
This trio structure works for me because I am inspired to write after I read.
I hope the reading you do today leads you to writing that could not have been created any other way.
Here are some of the texts that made an impact on me this week.
Poem: Rain
Story: Some of Your Favorite Things Aren’t Made to Last
Essay: Griefhouse
What will these pieces inspire you to write!?
What are you writing in your notebook today?
Have you read anything interesting this week that you need to share!? Please do so in the comments! I love recommendations and have found some of my favorite stories that way.
