Happy Evey Halloweeney, Writers! 🎃
Dressing up? Why not? Probably for the same reason I didn't dress up as requested by my tap dance teacher on Tuesday eve: huh?
But then when I showed up dressed as a wannabe tap dancer amidst a chorus line of humbling classmates dressed up as The Micky Mouse Club, mechanics, jailbirds, butterflies, not sure, who knows, Winnie-the-Pooh, grizzly bear, (I think or maybe she was just wearing brown) and the Fonz (I think?), I felt guilty.
Look how delightful this is! I realized. Look at all this happy! At least you could've put on your ears! Aren't you always saying you wish you had ears on top of your head? Well... now you lost your chance!
Learn from my mistake! Dress up! Dress as your favorite author, character, alter ego, cyberyou, kid you, older you, teen you, college you, emoticon (you/other), the hero you of your memoir, your fantasy self, your fantasy, your favorite food, the weather, what you wanted to be growing up, what you dressed up for Halloween as a kid, a baby, your mom, singer, poet, someone sung about in the lyric of a song… or the unsung someone…. something or someone you love, your pen, your imagination, the end, your other half, your pet… Am I having fun yet? Anyway, perhaps?

Live a different story today, be someone different, give yourself a break from being you.... do something different... and then... come home and write about it!
Of course...if this is too much...these could be prompts, naturally…. write from the POV of the above... treasure! Juice! Enjoy! 🧡
