Writing Prompt: Little Finch
September 3, 2007
Each month, we post a writing prompt tied to the current month's essay. Please email your responses of 500 words or less to lmreflections (at) literarymama (dot) com with the words "writing prompt" in the subject line so that we know it's not an essay submission. Submissions should be in the text of an email (please do not send attachments). We will accept responses until the 15th of each month and offer our feedback on each response privately before the end of the month. We hope you'll take this opportunity to get inspired, share your work, and find community with other writers! We'll post our favorites on our blog. In "Little Finch" Christy Stillwell writes: "I thought about that bird, if there could be any resentment in her, any sense of loss for the freedom she had given up. Because there was for me. It was 't anything as strong as anger, just a mental pause, a bewildered question: Where will I write now? How will I find the time? Will it even matter?" What questions have you asked about your own intersection of writing and mothering? What have been your meditations on them?
