Dec. 15: Wish Lists

In today's reading Mr. White talks about how various types of wish lists can serve as inspiration for writers and that writers should make wishes even outlandish wishes. Mr. White gives several examples of possible wish lists.
FOR FURTHER REFLECTION:
Here again Mr. White tell us that "wishing and wish-listing are good activities for writers to indulge in." He tells writers that they should in fact allow themselves to "wish uninhibitedly".
TRY THIS:
1. Start keeping a list of fanciful, fantastical, fabulous wishes. Challenge yourself to conjure up the most outlandish wishes you can imagine.
2. After a week or so, review your fantastic wish list and choose one or more of them as the basis for a children's fairy tale or n adult fantasy story.
