Sitemap - 2021 - Writing for Weird Times by Amy Guth
It's the f-word for me for sure
Whatever December 25th is to you
Social media is a cruel master
Current events as writing prompts
I don't know anything about hunting
I love a parade/when I hear a band
Waiter, what's this fly doing in my soup?
Missive: do that bananas-ass thing
Your worst job interview story
Missive: "life happens" edition
Missive: space for creative work
Dispatches from the before-time
You're going to want to avoid that
Most importantly— oh, a squirrel!
Missive: "track in order to grow" edition
Missive: "how to do digital housekeeping" edition
Missive: "the right kind of big focus" edition
Stuff shared with grandparents
Missive: "strategies for self-doubt" edition
Missive: "press ahead and do the work" edition
A word about external credibility
Skip if you're in that lizard people cult
The importance of the ordinary
I'll never forget where I was when...
This is either awesome or awful
"Because I come from the land of plenntaaayy"
The ridiculous warm-up exercise
Working through writerly fears
Prompt: this changes things how?
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood...
What are you looking forward to?
When it all fell to heckin' heck
What if even the big goal is too small?
Prompt: just let me do it, ok?
Prompt: best meal of your life
Task for public impact: track your efforts
Exercise: you know a lot about that
Prompt: a very stupid epiphany
Exercise: the importance of writing without stopping
Get more mileage out of your work
Prompt: personal essay about before
Exercise: find an idea in two minutes
Prompt: work time/personal time
Task for public impact: what has your attention?
Prompt: your younger writer self
Exercise: your brain's value to others
Meditation on not "wasting" any writing
Prompt: what we keep after all this
