Writing Prompt: Witch
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 word "writing prompt" in the subject line so that we know it's not an essay submission. 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!
In this month's "Witch," Sarah Gardner Borden revisits a favorite book series from her childhood. The author discovers that the books not only delight her daughters, but also remain relevant in her own life -- providing solace as she deals with some very "adult" issues.
Have you ever re-read books as an adult that had been your own childhood favorites? What was the experience like the second time around compared to the first time? If you also shared the book(s) with children, how did their reactions compare to your own?
