Acrostic advice to myself in response to the Daily Prompt Learning
Let’s raise a glass to Trial and
Error – Have a go
And swallow terror –
Rule of Thumb’s your guiding
Notion – Suck
It & See your only motion –
Now you know there won’t be sorrow,
Go make mistakes like there’s no tomorrow!

Very clever! 🙂
Thank you! But my chronic writer’s block persists notwithstanding …

Haha! I find it easy to preach but hard to follow my own advice!
loved it and your writers block loosened a little.
Thanks for reading my little break for freedom …
Go make mistakes like there’s no tomorrow is good advice to a writer, I think. Unless they start experimenting, their writing is likely to be staid and boring, but experimenting means fall you your face sometimes.
Absolutely … which is why kids should be allowed to make mistakes and not be terrified of getting things wrong. I might do a post about that …
It sounds like a good topic for one. 🙂
