Creative Exercise: Half-Tank Writing
Here's a quickie exercise for a summer day.
Take out a clean sheet of paper.
Scroll through the Big Bunny's photos from his Half-Tank Cruise.
Write down the first thing that pops into your mind when you see each photo.
That's it! Free writing. No editing. Ready, set, write!
All your answers are great ... I already tossed my sheet of paper, but my answers got progressively more interesting, as though my creative brain was kicking in after the first four shots.

2. Orange
3. Royal
4. Hot dog
5. Ireland
6. Secret
7. Ladder/Aspiration (it was a tie)
8. Narrow
9. Sad

Huh. I wonder if that's kind of the point.... (I know. It's a wonder Mensa hasn't snatched me up by now.)
