Don't Quit Your Day Job #6 (A Silly Goofy Writing Series)
​👹 Writing events are mostly too serious. This one feels like a Japanese game show. 👹
We'll be "method writing":
1) You'll get to choose a slate of characters with light backstories: think "Instagram model before she gets flown out to Dubai" or "Rat trapped in the Cheesecake Factory".
​2) We each spend ~45mins writing in any form: poetry, fiction, personal essay, blog post, rap. The twist is that you have to write as though you * are * the character you chose. The character themselves are the writing prompt.Â
​3) We wrap up with small reading groups where you can share your writing / get to meet 3-4 people
​4) We then vote on a single winner in the GAME SHOW FINALS, who then goes home with everyone's ticket fee.
Even if you're not a writer, the real muscle we're flexing here is creativity: Can you come up with a novel concept in the constraints you've been given? Can you lean into the whimsy? Can you make us laugh?
​It'll be very stupid. You should come.
