Last night my writing partner and I were both extremely stressed out and had a bit of a dry spell after several attempts. So after we put our journals away, and packed away books, we resolved to just hold it for next week. At that moment we just started talking about this and that and all of a sudden the conversation brought fourth a prompt that we would've never thought of and then I suggest that we leave it for another occasion. She dares me to take out my book and write something. After about eight to ten minutes of head down quiet we both look up at each other and mutter the words "okay you first".
I went first and then she (well duh) and we were both happy, excited and amazed by our results. This is after four hours of attempting. Four hours of venting, blabbing. Four hours of all of this and then, that is when a poem came out. I'm very happy with the outcome and the road there makes no never mind to me.
Having a steady weekly writing partner who I push and who pushes me is definitely a wonderful idea. Thanks Ms. White.
