100 imagination-stretching writing exercises inspired by the idea of creative constraints, from the author of The Making of a Story.
When you are facing down a blank page (or screen), a constraint-based prompt-for example, "you must use the words 'cloud' and 'green'" or "you must set the scene in a crowded grocery store"-can get your brain working in unexpected ways.
In this creative writing guide, longtime teacher and novelist Alice LaPlante shares 100 original exercises that will simultaneously push you into a corner and give you the tools to write yourself out of it. LaPlante explains the purpose of each exercise-to sharpen your ear for dialogue, generate surprising images, or access intense emotions-and breaks down student examples to reveal how to achieve these goals. Whether you are looking to jumpstart new ideas or find a fresh angle on a work in progress, and whether you write fiction, creative nonfiction, or poetry, Write Yourself Out of a Corner will strengthen your imagination and your craft.
