Listen "4.13b 'Bark Mask' - Writing Prompt for my Conversation with Jackee Holder"

Episode Synopsis

In this prompt, I use Jackee's beautiful writing maps for inspiration.  We look at the prompt, 'bark mask' and the directions we could go in in writing using this title.  I read the extract from the 'Writing with Fabulous Trees' map and share thoughts on how you might use this in your own writing.
Some ideas:

'Writing about ways in which surfaces protect us...about your own or your character's masks, and the importance of surfaces.' (JH)
Put the title, 'bark mask' at the top of the page and free write for at least 10 minutes (15-20 minutes if you have it!) on the theme
Get outside and put your hands on a tree trunk; or forage a some sticks and see how the textures differ when you are back at home

Please do share your writing with me as I love to read your words!
Jackee's writing maps and the Inner & Outer World Self-Discovery deck can be found in the shop section on her website www.jackeeholder.com

Happy writing!
