the Artist's Way - Week Twelve - Day Five

Take out your results from Day Two and read over what you wrote. Do you see multiple ideas? A single idea for a new story? A few lines that sound like poetry?

Take a second piece of paper or open a new document and jot down what you think about the results and what you can do with them.

If a germ is there, begin the new project. If not, set both results aside and come back in a few days and see if any growth has occurred. Continue until your gut tells you that nothing came into being on the pages and move on.

You will not always get results from this exercise. Not every seed sprouts.
