Hellooooooo everyone! So as the title states, I'm requesting suggestions!

You may have noticed that December has come (and almost gone) without the usual writing experiment poll. (I'm hoping you'll forgive me since the holidays are often so crazy!)

But as we're entering into 2020, I wanted to pick your brains and see what sort of writing experiments you would like to see in the future.

Comment down below and let me know:

  • if there's something you've always wanted to try but are understandably sane enough NOT to do and want me to give it a go instead,
  • if there's any of my old experiments you'd like me to re-do,
  • if there's any sort of writing-adjacent experiment you'd like to see!

Thanks guys! And I hope the final few days of 2019 treat you WONDERFULLY. :)

You're the worst. 🙃 Consider your request noted.

I really liked the racing against time videos, to see like how much you can write in an amount of time. Also enjoyed the flip side, those 12 hour/24 hour writing challenges. It would be so cool if we could somehow do them with you.

I just keep re-watching the writing like JK Rowling video. Have you any more grids to do?

Also perhaps what you learn as you approach publishing. I’m a long way from that point, but it would be interested to see how this works!

Mary Wockenfuss

I'd love to see a 7 prompts in 7 days experiment. But maybe limit it to a genre you've never/rarely written in.

Diane Verrochi

What does it mean to write like a Ravenclaw? A Hufflepuff? Etc.? Maybe pick your house, maybe a different house. All 4 might be a bit much unless you're just super inspired.

I think it'd be neat to see you do one where you write on a couple different mediums: typewriter, computer, phone (if you hate yourself :P), hand-written, and whatever others you can't think of.

How about trying to use dragon dictate to write and see if you can adjust to it over the course of the free week they offer.

Have you studied Story Grid theory at all? It’s one of the many structures I tried to wrap my brain around when I was heavily studying craft to try and level up enough to tell my story the way it needed to be told... ultimately I didn’t end up using it but the concepts were really cool and it was a very unique way of looking at story. There’s a podcast, a book, and a lot of website content on it. The guy that started it was a big 5 editor for like 20 some years. It might be something new to try? Made my brain hurt a little tho lol. Other than that... as someone who has a full time day job, I often wish I had the wherewithal to do a 24 hour writing marathon and just get it all done. I know it isn’t feasible to write a book in 24 hours but A GIRL CAN DREAM, OKAY? But maybe, Kate... you could confirm, for science... if it possible. Lol

Maybe some advice on how to create a fictional world for a newbie writer ... and how to figure out what style the writing is you are writing

Nadine Poplawski

Maybe write the same event from 4 different point of views...like 4 Hogwarts houses..etc

Ok, so maybe not a writing experiment per se, but what if you spent a day as one of your characters. Like a "day in the life of whoever". So maybe you'd just make choices that they would make throughout the day that would be different from your own or idk, something. Give yourself a better idea of the type of person they are? yep. That's my suggestion.

Now you have a standing desks can you do an experiment including sprints standing/sitting/lying down. You could see how many words you get and whether it changes your writing at all?

Anonymous

I know there's been a lot of discussion during the online writing sprints over what it the optimum sprint length. Could you do a day using short vs long sprints and see which is more productive? Hope you had a good Christmas.

Temo Blackwater

Maybe trying writing in a nature-based environment, like a park or forest. Assuming you dont have wacky allergies.

🤔 you know how you got duke to dictate your writing routine once? why not have your family do the same if they’d be up for it 😁

Anonymous

I was looking into about how Harper Lee wrote, but it’s mostly just hide in someone else’s home and write.

Ooooh, I'm totally down for doing a different version of the 7 prompts/7 days experiment! It would be fun to see if I'd learn to love a genre. Thank you! :)

I'm definitely down for trying them again and seeing how I could incorporate more viewer/patron interaction! Maybe I could do a livestream and bring some more people online or post more on instagram DURING the write-a-thon?? I'll think about this, THANK YOU! :)

Ooooh, very interesting! I'm down for the attempt. (I unfortunately don't have a typewriter though, so that might be out!) But it will be fun to brainstorm all the different ways I can write, too bahaha.

OOOOH how cool! I didn't know they offered a free week. Thank you for the suggestion, I'm definitely down to try this! I'm hoping to experiment more with dictation in general so this is perfect. :)

Thank you for 2019. Personally I don't have any particular things other than to see you finish a project to take to the next step.

Regina Duke

What David S said. Thank you for 2019. I love your videos and your idea sharing. Having your family dictate your writing routine for a day would be fun to watch. Happy New Year! Can't wait to see that first book published! :D

Mike Mckenzie

How about writing in different environments. Writing in a park, abandon building, on the roof of a building, cemetery, and writing overnight in a jail cell would be a interesting video as well

Shannon Igans

Something I have wanted to try, which has been inspired by your ‘Cooking with Classics’ series, is making tangible things from a book I am working on. I have considered making food a character likes or is special to the setting. When I am feeling really ambitious, I sometimes dream of creating a piece of art I could see included in the backdrop of a scene. The idea both feeds my creative hunger, but also provides a new focus. I am not entirely sure how this could be converted into a full experiment, but my vague thought is that you could discuss setting inspiration and ways to make a unique setting feel real while you are populating it with events and stories.

This made me think of the book 'Everything on a Waffle,' where the main character would mention a particular food or dish, and a recipe for it would be included at the end o the chapter
