I create creative writing prompts to share with participants of the writing workshops that I run with my good friend, @jenlavallee.
Today the prompt that I shared was “make a writing bucket list.”
I know the importance of setting goals to realize a dream. One of my dreams was to write and publish a book, and I was able to check that off by first meeting a series of measurable, relevant goals (like go to grad school for writing and develop an online presence) to help me reach that larger dream.
If you look up goal setting, you'll find pages and pages of information on the 'right' way to set them. For me, it's pretty straight-forward: when I put things in writing it makes me instantly more accountable.
Here are two of the items on my current writing bucket list:
- Finish the young adult novel that I started.
- Write a children’s book.
So, I thought I’d ask you (and maybe nudge you into thinking about your goals): what is on your writing/creative bucket list? What’s your ultimate bucket-list item?
