Tammy's Trio on Tuesday
Reflections and Readings from My Bradbury Trio Program + Writing Prompts
This morning I am off to AWP for the first time!
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 is some of what I read today.
Poem: Coconuts
Writing Prompt: Tell me, what do you know about happiness?
Story: Lost Things
Writing Prompt: Write about an object you have lost.
Essay: Florida’s War on Books
Writing Prompt: What is so ridiculous that you have to talk about it?
Banning books doesn’t make sense to me for many reasons. This article infuriates me. Some adults forget they teach children their adult rules for things when they have not yet had the experience (And may not). Children do not sexualize cartoon bottoms in an illustration. It is an adult constraint/idea pushed on a child. GRRRRRR
What will these pieces inspire you to write!?
What are you writing in your notebook today?
I would love to know your favorite lines in the comments.

Hi Tammy, as much as I love the way you help so many writers, I find myself reading too much stuff that is not core to my now intensive research, for three projects. I wish you well, Peace, Maurice
Hi Tammy, I wanted you to know I used "Lost Things" to get to my post today. Thank you yet again!
