Imagination pt 2. (5 minute challenge) !



I had a creative writing teacher who always challenged the us in class. We would come in to class and the first thing we would notice is our twenty minute challenge on the board. Once the bell rung the challenged started. This was always fun and was what I looked forward to every week.

The Goal:

Take a sheet of paper and pen

Write any and everything that came to mind

You only have 20 mins to create something special.

Could be a poem, short story, or whatever.

The Process:

There had to be complete silence

You had to write without stopping

Write until the timer stopped

The End:

We read out loud what was on our paper

This was the fun part.

No matter what was on the paper the class always enjoyed it because we came up with silly things. We laughed from every challenge that was read.

So here's my challenge for you, set your timer for five minutes and write whatever comes to your mind. Challenge your friends. Make this fun. This not only helps with creativity, but it puts you in the mood to write. This also helps get rid of the writers block.

Have fun!
