Imagination Sparks Blogfest

Wagging Tales

It's here! My first-ever blogfest!

This is the IMAGINATION SPARKS BLOGFEST
What does that mean? It's easy. We all know at least one good warm up exercise to get our brain geared up and ready to write. That one creative task that gets your imagination bubbling with ideas. I thought we'd share them and try each others.

Here's what I want you to do.
  1. Register your blog in the link list to show you are going to try and participate. Sign up will be available for one week.
  2. On the 1st of August (hey, we won't be cross if it goes up a day or two late), post one of your favourite writing exercises that we can all try. You might want to credit the creator of the exercise if you know where you found it.
  3. Read other peoples blogs and try some of those exercises.
  4. Do a follow up blogpost to let people know which exercises you tried and what results you got. You can post your followup whenever you can. Visit the other blogs to see how they went with the exercises.
  5. Get great new ideas and make new bloggy friends!

  8. Great idea! I have a couple blogging buddies who I think would love this. I've tweeted it and mentioned it on my Writer's Group blog.

    Once I pick an exercise, I'll be sure to sign up.
