I’m thinking of trying something, and I wanted to share it in case it might help someone else out there.
I’m going to call them Garbage Days.
Basically, I want to sit down and write literally anything. A short story, something new, an alternate ending, stream of consciousness, a random character description that’s been rattling around in my head…
Anything.
Things just feel so cluttered sometimes, and I’m always paranoid that I’ll forget the details. It gets a bit distracting at times.
So I think having a Garbage Day every now and then might help.
I guess if you don’t want it to sound so negative, you could call it Spring Cleaning or some other prettier name, but I tend toward blunt and sarcastic, so Garbage Day works for me. Lol.
I’m not sure how often to do this or when I’ll actually be able to start, but I’m kinda excited to see what the hell will come out of it.
Will you be adopting Garbage Days as a writing tactic?
