Hello!
I have genuinely no idea how it’s already October. That, however, means that our next Reading and Writing course is starting soon, so if you’d like to join us for Her Body and Other Parties (and you should), you can grab one of the last couple of remaining tickets here.
There’s some more info on the course here…
As it’s the first prompt of the month, this one’s for everybody!
Set yourself two minutes on a timer, and write down everything that pops into your head when you think of “October.” It doesn’t have to be a tidy list, or one that makes sense to anyone but you, but what does this month bring to mind? When your two minutes is up, look over your list and pick a word or a phrase that jumps out as your starting point, and then give yourself five minutes for freewriting that expands it. What have you ended up with? Is there the beginning of something seasonal there?
An annual paid subscription is now £2 a month! Paid subscribers have access to weekly prompts and community posts, as well as discounts on course fees. This Substack is reader-supported, and I am so glad you’re here. Please feel free to share with friends you think would enjoy it. Thank you for reading.
See you next week,
Terri-Jane x
